Travelling to such places which has lot of curves in the mountain region or hill stations could be risk during the first trimester of pregnancy. You may experience certain effects related to high altitude and motion sickness during travelling, which can affect your pregnancy. It would be better be avoided.
Hope the information provided would be helpful. Let me know if I can assist you further.
You have to take sufficient care while travelling. You should go in a comfortable car. Avoid jerks and pressure on your abdomen. You need to be more careful since it is a hilly road. You can take some break, more than what is required.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
