Haridwar to Auli Cab — Fare, Distance & Route 2026

📏 273 km 9–10 hrs💰 from ₹7,500📍 Joshimath (then ropeway/road to Auli)
Quick Answer

Haridwar to Auli is 273 km, about 9–10 hrs by cab. One-way fares start at ₹7,500 (sedan) and the route runs Haridwar → Rishikesh → Devprayag → Rudraprayag → Karnaprayag → Chamoli → Joshimath → Auli. Booked with Shiv Ganga Travels, a Haridwar operator since 2010, with fixed fares and experienced hill drivers.

Auli is the long one — nearly the full Badrinath road before you turn up to the meadows. But the payoff is India’s best-known ski slope and a front-row view of Nanda Devi. The drive follows the Alaknanda through four of the Panch Prayag confluences, so it doubles as a river-confluence tour. Reach Joshimath by evening; the cable car or a short hill drive takes you up to Auli the next morning.
