Dalhousie → Khajjiar

cab · 1h

₹1,500

1 way / person

Pathankot → Khajjiar

bus · 4h

₹250

1 way / person

Cheapest listed route is Pathankot → Khajjiar by bus. Return for two works out to about ₹1,000 — so a whole trip lands near ₹4,900 for two, travel included.

Fares are typical one-way estimates per person from Khajjiar's common gateways, not live prices — book early and expect festival months to run higher.
