Jammu & Kashmir
Alpine meadows, gondola rides and the valley’s most cinematic landscapes.
Winter (December–March) suits skiing and snow at Gulmarg; the same slopes turn into meadows from April, making late spring through summer the season for a gentler visit.3–5 days covers Gulmarg’s slopes and meadows on their own; many visitors combine it with time in Srinagar, a short drive away.Srinagar (Sheikh ul-Alam Airport) is the gateway to the Kashmir Valley and Gulmarg; Jammu, further south, has its own airport and rail link for the Jammu division.
The story
About Jammu & Kashmir
Jammu & Kashmir spans two very different landscapes: the Kashmir Valley's alpine meadows and lakes, and Jammu's warmer foothill plains further south. Our coverage today is the Kashmir Valley circuit — Srinagar's Dal Lake and Mughal gardens, Gulmarg's meadows and gondola, Pahalgam's Lidder valley, and Sonamarg's high-altitude scenery. Together these four make a genuinely varied 5-7 day trip; Jammu division and the rest of the valley aren't part of our catalogue yet.
- Srinagar's Dal Lake houseboats and Mughal gardens alongside Gulmarg's meadows and gondola in one compact valley
- Gulmarg's gondola rises to about 3,979 m at Apharwat Peak, running through both ski season and summer meadows
- A focused 5-7 day trip — Srinagar, Gulmarg, Pahalgam and Sonamarg sit close enough to combine easily rather than sprawl
