Pauri Garhwal includes both hill country and lower terrain around Kotdwar. The district administration notes a strong contrast between the cooler hills and the hotter summer conditions in the Bhabar.

Town and district

A reference to Pauri town should not be taken as a description of every place in Pauri Garhwal district. Altitude and setting matter when interpreting a local account.

Reading place information

Look for the specific settlement, valley or administrative area named in a source. A single weather description or town-centre address cannot represent the whole district. The official introduction below provides a starting point for its varied geographical setting.
