Google returned thsi post on my search for Bareilly-Nainital. The mini bypass is from the NH-24 after crossing the overbridge, probably from CB ganj in Bareilly. Roads in Uttarakhand sound much better than the UP roads. Someone told me that Bareilly to Nainital is 125km! Rajeev Patrick, Thanks for the post that answers my query on the Bareilly Lalkuan road.

In any case as i found out out, of all the rooms at Dhikala only the annexes are alloted for booking to the KMVN by the Forest Department. As for distances, i have a peculiar problem. I own a fiat palio. About 2 yrs ago the speedo conked out and fiat tells me they are unable to repair it and that the only solution is to replace the whole instrument cluster for a cost which i am loath to do. so i can't even calculate my mileage let alone distances. However i did check up with mapmyindia.com and this is what i came up with. Lucknow to Sitapur - 77 km Sitapur to Shahjahanpur - 85 km Shahjahanpur to Bareilly - 77 km Bareilly to Haldwani - 147 km Haldwani to Nainital - 56 km Total - 442 km. Nainital to Corbett - 72 km - this a very good stretch to drive Corbett to Haldwani - 108 km Patrick
