What are the biggest challenges while traveling to Manali by road? - ajaysengar - 01-20-2026 Traveling to Manali by road is beautiful but comes with a few challenges, especially for first-time travelers: Long travel hours – The journey from Delhi can take 12–14 hours or more due to traffic and breaks, which can be tiring without proper planning. Traffic congestion – Chandigarh, Bilaspur, and Kullu stretches often get congested during weekends and peak seasons. Mountain road fatigue – Continuous curves and elevation changes can cause motion sickness for some travelers. Weather uncertainty – Sudden rain, fog, or snowfall can slow down travel, especially in monsoon and winter.
