Search flights from DEL to DHM
Delhi Urban Sprawl
Witness the massive density and layout of the National Capital Region during the initial ascent phase.
Himalayan Horizon
Observe the distant snow-capped peaks of the Great Himalayan range visible throughout the journey.
Gobind Sagar
Stunning aerial view of the vast reservoir created by the Bhakra Dam nestled in the hills.
Dhauladhar Range
Intense, close-up views of the 'White Range' as the aircraft prepares for landing at Kangra.
Kangra Valley
Scenic descent over lush tea gardens and traditional Himachali settlements near the airport.
Sit on the right side for the iconic mountain views. Morning flights (before 10 AM) offer the clearest visibility and the best lighting on the snow-capped peaks. Keep your camera ready as you pass the Bhakra Dam area for the most dramatic transition from the plains into the high mountain terrain. Seasonal snow in winter makes the Dhauladhar range look particularly spectacular.

Millennium City
Panoramic view of Gurgaon's modern architecture and high-rise business parks shortly after takeoff.
Fertile Heartland
Extensive patchwork of green and gold agricultural fields across Haryana and Punjab.
Sutlej Crossing
Bird's-eye view of the historic river flowing toward the plains from the mountains.
Shivalik Ridges
The first undulations of the lower Himalayan foothills marking the end of the Indo-Gangetic plains.
The left side is best for viewing the sprawling plains of Punjab and the modern skyline of Gurgaon. Aim for a morning flight to avoid the thick haze that often builds up over the plains by the afternoon, which can significantly reduce visibility.
