Faridabad to Chandigarh Taxi Service
Chandigarh from Faridabad skips Delhi entirely -- the KMP Expressway carries a NIT Faridabad or Ballabhgarh pickup straight around to Kundli, dropping onto NH44 practically at Murthal.

Route Overview
Faridabad to Chandigarh by Road
There's no city driving involved at the start of this trip: NIT Faridabad, Sector 15 and Ballabhgarh pickups all join the KMP Expressway, which arcs around Delhi's western edge and comes off right near Kundli, a stone's throw from Murthal on NH44.
From there it's the same long run through Ambala and Zirakpur as any other NCR-to-Chandigarh trip, but the opening is noticeably cleaner than what a Delhi or Noida pickup deals with first.
Murthal remains the go-to break for parathas, sitting almost exactly where the expressway hands off to the highway.
Travel Details
Distance, Time and Route Highlights
The KMP Expressway is what makes this route different -- it keeps a Faridabad pickup off Delhi's roads entirely, feeding directly onto NH44 near Kundli rather than through the city like a Noida start would need. Everything from Murthal onward runs the same regardless of where the trip began.

Places to Visit
Top Attractions in Chandigarh
- Rock Garden — Built from recycled industrial and household waste, arranged as connected courtyards that take a good couple of hours to see properly.
- Sukhna Lake — A large man-made lake at the city's edge, good for an evening walk or a short boat ride once the heat drops.
- Rose Garden — One of Asia's bigger rose gardens -- worth timing the trip around the flowering season rather than visiting off-season.
- Kasauli — A quieter hill town further beyond Chandigarh, better suited to an extra day than squeezed into the same trip.
Good to Know
Best Time to Travel and Road Notes
Best season: October to March is the most comfortable time, avoiding the peak summer heat of the plains. Winter mornings can be foggy around Ambala.
Road note: The Delhi crossing at the start of this drive is the most variable part of the journey — timing your departure to avoid peak local traffic saves more time than anything on the open highway stretch.
