If you dream of a perfect romantic and refreshing date in the hills, then Lansdowne ( a cantonment town in Pauri Garhwal district) is the place of your choice. Located in the Pauri district of Uttarakhand, Lansdowne is 45 kms from Kotdwar.
Founded in 1887 by then Viceroy of India Lord Lansdowne.
It was developed by the British for catering for the Recruits Training center of the Garhwal Rifles. Lansdowne was a major place of the activities of freedom fighters from British Garhwal during British period.
Refreshing air, alluring beauty and a glorious view of the snow covered peaks inspire peace and tranquility and makes Lansdowne one of the quietest hill stations of India and is popular since Britishers came to India.
Shielded with the world's highest and most beautiful mountain ranges – the Himalayas, naturally Uttarakhand Hills are bestowed with extra ordinary beauty and most of it is unseen by the outside world. This makes Lansdowne an ideal location for eco-tourism.
