Destination Guide
Kashmir
Still water. Snow peaks. A valley that keeps its promises.
Overview
Kashmir is the closest India gets to alpine scenery. Dal Lake in the early morning, the cable car up Gulmarg, pine forests around Pahalgam — the valley works in every season and changes character completely between them.
Srinagar's houseboats, Gulmarg's meadows, Pahalgam's river valleys and Sonamarg's glacier views.

Questions Travellers Ask.
Everything we wish someone had told us before a first trip to Kashmir.
Kashmir welcomes a large number of domestic travellers each year and tourism infrastructure is fully operational. We plan trips with local partners, keep itineraries flexible and share current on-ground guidance before you travel.
Six days covers Srinagar, Gulmarg and Pahalgam well. Add Sonamarg for a seventh day if you enjoy high-altitude landscapes.
Layers. Even in summer, evenings in Gulmarg and Pahalgam get cold. In winter you need proper thermals, waterproof shoes and gloves.
