A memorial and small museum honouring the Garhwal Rifles regiment, reflecting Lansdowne's continued role as an active army cantonment.

A forest temple roughly 8km from town, reached by a scenic drive through dense oak woods — a good half-day excursion away from the cantonment core.
Snow View Point / Oak Forest Walk
A network of quiet walking trails through century-old oak and pine forest connecting the town's viewpoints — the main appeal is simply how few people you'll meet.
