Plan your 2024 Long Weekends getaway with this itinerary

January 2024

Long Weekends: December 30 to January 2

January 13 to January 16

January 26 to January 28

January has three long weekends, and you have ample places around India to explore. However, we suggest travelling to Rann of Kutch and experiencing the remarkable Rann Utsav in all its glory. You can also visit Theog (1 hour from Shimla) to experience scenic hikes, apple orchids, and snow-clad views. Then, you can visit Thirunelly in Wayanad, which promises verdant views and nature hikes or have a winter safari in Gir National Park, Kaziranga or Ranthambore.

March 2024

Long Weekends: March 8 to March 11

March 29 to April 1

The festive occasion of Holi falls in March, and the best way to celebrate it is by visiting Mathura or experiencing the Lathmar Holi of Barsana. You can also travel to Ratnagiri to spot Olive Ridley turtles and catch the mesmerising view of verdant hills meeting the beaches. Kochi in Kerala (for the emerald coast and historical landmarks) and Lakshwadeep (for pleasant tropical climates and secluded beaches) should also be on your radar.

As temperatures soar in May, you can plan a trip to Gulmarg or Spiti Valley. While Gulmarg will offer pleasant weather, gondola rides and delicious dishes, Spiti can be on your itinerary for scenic treks, stunning monasteries, river rafting, and camping at Chandratal.

June 2024

In June, travel to Ladakh for the peaceful monasteries, mountain ranges, pristine lakes, numerous trails, highest motorable roads and panoramic views. Snow-covered Auli, the adventures in Rishikesh and the heritage town of Almora should also excite you for a visit in June.

Another alternative is to enjoy an adventure-packed vacation at Karjat or relax in the picturesque Ooty or Munnar.

Celebrate Onam in Kerala by witnessing the boat races, gorging on delectable Sadya, relaxing amid the serene beauty of backwaters, watching the glorious Arabian Sea coast, or spending a day in the tea-covered hills of the Western Ghats. Otherwise, you can travel to Pune for pandal hopping during Ganesh Chaturthi or choose an offbeat destination like Ziro in Arunachal Pradesh (for local cuisine, sightseeing, trekking and nature trails).
