Planning tips
- Haryana offices already work five days, so a Monday or Friday holiday gives a free three-day weekend.
- October–March suits Morni Hills, Tikkar Taal and Sultanpur National Park (migratory birds peak December–February).
- The Delhi–Chandigarh and Delhi–Jaipur highways jam on long weekends — leave early.
