Hey, hope you doing well with your family.
if you want to explore mountains that to after 7-8hrs drive then you can look for utrakhand masoori, dehradun or you can go for himachal .
Hi. I recently travelled to Kasauli, Himachal Pradesh by road from Delhi and it was comparatively less crowded than the popular Hill Stations. It takes approximately 7 hrs to reach and the road conditions are excellent mostly. We have stayed at a resort a little away from the Main Mall, Bird's View Resort and loved our stay where you can enjoy amazing view from the resort itself. For more details, you can check out my vlog on the same in my profile 😊
