The 5 Best Points of Interest & Landmarks in Mussoorie, Uttarakhand

July 31, 2021 Enriqueta Cusson

Established in the Himalaya foothills by a British Army officer in 1820, the "Queen of the Hills" stands above the rest with its deep woods, favorable climate and Doon Valley views. Its name is derived from the berry-covered Mansur shrub found in abundance around this trekker-friendly area. Vestiges of its colonial past are still reflected in the cuisine and architecture. For stunning natural sights, head to Gun Hill or Childer's Lodge, the two highest peaks, or the famous Kempty waterfall.

Camel's Back Road

Reviewed By HarlemJap

Lovely 3.5 km walk with a view of the majestic himalayas. On a nice clear day the snow clad mountains look breathtaking. Just a great walk. Better done in the morning

Lal Tibba

Reviewed By KimBatteau - Dehradun, India

Mussoorie is not what it used to be. It's imitating Shimla by becoming overdeveloped, crowded, noisy, and dirty. Instead go directly up to Landour, have a pancake at Char Dukan, take the lovely walk to Lal Tibba (the place where on a clear day you can see the snowcapped Himalayas in the distance), then walk back to old St. Paul's church, and go into the church to experience real quiet. Then go on a bit further to the restored Victorian villa, Rokeby Manor, go up to the second floor restaurant, and sit out in the covered porch, admire the magnificent trees and see if you can see a fabulous yellow-billed blue magpie, as you sip your chai. This is the way Mussoorie used to be. 8

The Camel Rock

Reviewed By SameekshakSACHIN - New Delhi, India

The Camel Rock is an amazing structure in the shape of Camel Back which can be seen from the middle of Camel Back Road. We visited the place in the evening and it was little dark but we could manage to see the Camel Rock. Camel back road is normally used by the local people for morning and evening walk. One can reach to the camel back road through Mall road. There is one road which goes up from mall road near rope way station to Cambridge book Depot and the road which is adjacent to Cambridge book depot, goes down to Camel back road. I would recommend this place to visit.
