Gurukul Kangri University is in Kankhal, Haridwar, and its official name is Gurukula Kangri (Deemed to be University). If you plan to visit, first confirm which campus you need: the university identifies its Main Campus separately from its Kanya Gurukula campuses, and public visitor access details are not published.
- Location: P.O. Gurukula Kangri, Kankhal, Haridwar-249404.
- Campus options: the Main Campus and Kanya Gurukula campuses in Haridwar and Dehradun.
- Before setting out: contact the university to confirm the campus and access arrangements.
Where is Gurukul Kangri University in Haridwar?

Gurukul Kangri University’s main postal location is in Kankhal, Haridwar. The university gives its address as P.O. Gurukula Kangri, Kankhal, Haridwar-249404; the Government of Haridwar district gives the address as P.O. Gurukul Kangri, Haridwar, PIN 249404.
That postal address does not identify a public entrance or gate. The university describes its Main Campus as the campus for male candidates, while Kanya Gurukula campuses are located in Haridwar and Dehradun. Confirm the destination campus with the university if you have an appointment or need to reach a particular office.
The university says its Kanya Gurukul Campus in Haridwar was established in 1992 and is dedicated to women’s education. Its facilities include academic blocks, a central library, a computer center, a Yajnashala, multipurpose halls, a canteen and a playground. These details can help you identify the campus you are looking for, but they do not establish public access.
How do you get to the campus from the hotel area?

From Hotel Park Grand, Gurukul Kangri University is about 16 minutes by car or 41 minutes on foot. Treat those as travel times to the university area, not directions to a particular gate: the university does not name public access points or provide directions from hotels, stations or the bus station.
Before you travel, confirm the exact campus and destination with your university contact. The university’s Kankhal postal address is distinct from the separate reporting location for its Faculty of Engineering & Technology, which is in Bahadrabad.
If your visit concerns that faculty, verify its location with the relevant university contact. For rail-arrival logistics in Haridwar, see how to get from Haridwar Junction to the hotel.
What should you know about campus entry?

Contact the university before visiting to confirm public access, visiting hours, identification requirements and whether campus-tour permission is needed. The Kanya Gurukula Haridwar campus also requires advance confirmation of visiting arrangements; do not assume that its facilities are open for casual visits.
For a visit, contact the Registrar Office at 07300761138 or registrar@gkv.ac.in and ask which campus and entrance to use, whether permission is required, and what identification to bring. The university also gives a security contact, but contact the relevant office to confirm visitor access. Check the official site before you go.
How can you plan around university schedules?

Confirm your appointment and the right campus directly with the university before planning the rest of your day. The International Affairs office hours are Monday–Saturday, 10:00 AM–5:00 PM; these are office hours for that department, not general campus visiting hours.
The International Affairs office is in the Office of the Nodal Officer (OIA), Department of Chemistry, and its contact emails are oia@gkv.ac.in and suhas@gkv.ac.in.
Use those details for inquiries relevant to that office; for other visits, start with the Registrar Office and ask to be directed to the correct department. For broader trip timing, when to visit Haridwar is another consideration.
