About Kasauli for road travellers
Kasauli is a small, quiet cantonment town at about 1,800 m, 58 km from Chandigarh and 77 km from Shimla, which makes it the easiest hill escape in the region. Much of the town is within the cantonment and an Air Force station, so traffic is light and some roads are restricted. Visitors come for walks along the Mall and Upper Mall, Christ Church (1853), sunsets over the plains, and its colonial institutions, including a brewery founded in 1835. It's a good first night out of Delhi, or a calm last stop before heading back down.
