How to Reach Shimla from Bhubaneswar?

1. By Air

Direct flights from Biju Patnaik International Airport in Bhubaneswar to Shimla are not available. The more advantageous choice would be to initially fly to either Delhi or Chandigarh. A limited number of flights connect Delhi to Shimla’s Jubbarhatti Airport, which is situated approximately 20 kilometres from the city centre. The alternative is to travel by road from Delhi or Chandigarh to Shimla after landing.

2. By Rail

The nearest major railway station to Shimla is Kalka, which is around 85.5 kilometres away. From Bhubaneswar, take a train to New Delhi or Ambala, then board a connecting train to Kalka. From there, the Kalka-Shimla toy train is a good choice if you want a scenic ride through hills and pine forests.
