Moving in Uttarakhand: what to expect
The monsoon from late June to September is heavy and sustained, and the hill roads close for landslides with little warning; winter snow briefly closes the higher routes from December to February.
The plains towns along the Haridwar–Rudrapur belt take full-size trucks easily, while hill towns usually need a 14-foot vehicle, a shuttle and a manual carry for the last stretch.
No state entry formalities for household goods. Cantonment towns such as Lansdowne, Ranikhet and Chakrata need a vehicle pass arranged in advance.
