Gulmarg: 

Located in the heart of the Pir Panjal Range is Gulmarg, which is both beautiful and peaceful. The valley’s cup shape is covered with a thick layer of snow. It is interspersed with little lakes and lush forests. Gulmarg is a serene destination, but it can also be quite adventurous. Gulmarg is a top-rated ski destination in the country. You can also try snowboarding, skiing, and trekking here. A beautiful Gondola ride, which is considered one of Asia’s highest, glides along the snow-capped mountains, providing breathtaking views of the peaks. You could also spend time exploring Gulmarg’s many attractions like Tanmarg, Khilanmarg or Ferozepur Nallah if adventure sports is not your thing. It is home to the country’s highest golf course, and it is well worth a visit.

 

Zanskar: 

Zanskar is a name that trekkers are familiar with. However, Zanskar is an undiscovered gem and one of the most beautiful places in Kashmir. Zanskar is home to a large number of Tibetan Buddhists. The slow pace of life revolves around the monasteries. Zongkhul, on the Padum-Kitswar trekking trail, is home to ornate cave monasteries and is one of the biggest attractions here. Another tourist attraction is the Stongdey Monastery. The Zanskar river winds its way through the hill station and is considered one of the most exciting gorges in the country. Rafting is also a popular but challenging activity. The Drang Drung glacier is located in the hill station, one of the largest in the country. It also offers paragliding possibilities. Zanskar is not accessible during winter due to its high elevation and can only be accessed between April and August.

Pahalgam is a hill station that lies at the confluence between the Sheshnag Lake and the Lidder River. Pahalgam, once a shepherd’s settlement, is still known as the “Valley of Shepherds”. Vast open fields welcome one with cattle at Pahalgam. These two valleys are home to the most tourist attractions in Pahalgam: Betaab and Aru. They have stunning green peaks and lazy rivers that run through them. Tourists in Pahalgam love to visit the Baisaran Meadow near Pahalgam. It is full of fun games and sports, and it is a popular day-trip destination. Chandanwari, too, is an excellent location for snow-picnics on the banks of the Lidder. This hill station is also used as a base camp for the famous Amarnath Yatra trek and is popular with ShivRatri devotees and trekkers.

 

Srinagar:

 This summer capital lies along the Jhelum River banks and is a highly sought-after inclusion in Kashmir packages. The majestic Himalayan Mountains surround Srinagar, and its natural beauty is truly amazing. The hill station, affectionately known as the City of Lakes, is home to the famous Dal Lake, which lies between snow-capped mountains. Although the lake’s floating markets are the main attraction, you can also visit Dal to take a shikara along its sparkling waters. Five gardens, known as the Mughal Gardens, are Srinagar’s most impressive assets. They boast stunning architectural designs and lush flowering grounds. Srinagar is renowned for its abundance of Kashmiri handicrafts. There are still many hand-spun shawls, blankets and carpets available at the local market that you can review.

 

Sonamarg: 

Literally meaning “Meadow of Gold”, Sonamarg’s beauty is postcard-worthy. Sonamarg is home to some of the highest peaks in the world, providing a stunning backdrop for the hill station. One of the most popular attractions is the Sindh River, which runs through the city’s centre. Picnicking along the Sindh River is a very popular activity. One can also ride a pony up to the Thajiwas glacier. The Zoji La Pass is one of the most famous mountain passes in the world and is popular with bikers and adventure enthusiasts in Sonamarg.
