The twin parks – Amber and Dhara. Both the gardens have been developed and are maintained by the Forest Department. With deodar and cedar trees beautifying the parks, there’s no way you can miss casual strolls and small hikes in these gardens.

Eco parks of Amber and Dhara are also fun places for families with kids. There is a lot of open area for kids to run around and play games, thus making it the top choice among the many sightseeing places in Dhanaulti for families.

Located on the Apple Orchard Road, the Dhanaulti Adventure Park is an ideal getaway from the bustling city life. Towering trees, luscious green meadows and breathtaking views of the Himalayan peaks make this adventure park one of the best tourist attractions of Dhanaulti. Here you can take treks to Top Niba and Surkanda Devi and go for mountain biking, rappelling, horse riding, and camping.

The Dashavatar Temple is the earliest known Panchayatan temple in North India and is definitely one of the popular places to see in Dhanaulti. It was built during the Gupta Empire and is dedicated to Lord Vishnu. Beautifully sculpted panels adorn the terraced basement just above the high plinth.

Surkhanda Devi Temple is dedicated to Goddess Parvati and is revered equally both by locals as well as tourists alike. Perched at a height of about 10,000 feet, the Surkanda Devi Temple offers a 360-degree view of the Garhwal region of the Himalayas and the Dehradun valley along with snow-covered peaks that add to the beauty of the temple.
