Dehradun Travel Guide
India
Dehradun is a city of nearly one million people in northern India and the capital of Uttarakhand. It sits in the Himalayan foothills, making it an inland base rather than a coastal destination.
Most visitors arriving by air use Dehra Dun Airport (DED), the airport serving the city. There are no notable beaches within 40 kilometres, so plan for hill and inland scenery rather than a beach break.
