Where this package goes

  • Srinagar

    The valley's only city and the base for every itinerary — Dal Lake, the Mughal gardens and the airport all sit

    1,585 m0
  • Gulmarg

    India's most serious ski terrain and one of the world's highest cable cars, 105 minutes from Srinagar.

    2,650 m2 hr from Srinagar
  • Sonamarg

    Glacier country on the road to Ladakh — and the one major valley that genuinely shuts in winter.

    2,730 m3 hr from Srinagar
  • Pahalgam

    Pine forest and the Lidder river at a gentler altitude than Gulmarg, and the trailhead for three side valleys.

Know before you book

  • Srinagar

    Houseboat quality varies enormously within the same star band — book by boat name, not category.

  • Gulmarg

    Gondola Phase 2 to Apharwat closes on heavy-snow mornings and in high wind — check at the Phase 1 counter on the day, not the night before.

  • Gulmarg

    Very limited dining outside hotels; plan lunch around the gondola queue.

  • Sonamarg

    Closed for much of winter. A December or January itinerary that promises Sonamarg is almost certainly wrong.

  • Sonamarg

    Thajiwas requires a pony or a steep walk from the road head; both are charged locally.

Frequently asked questions

Do Indian nationals need a permit for Kashmir?

No permit is required for Indian nationals visiting Srinagar, Gulmarg, Pahalgam or Sonamarg. High-altitude treks such as Tarsar–Marsar do require registration and a licensed guide, arranged locally.

Why do I need a separate local taxi at Pahalgam?

Vehicles from Srinagar are not permitted beyond Pahalgam town. Travel to Betaab Valley, Aru Valley and Chandanwari must use local union taxis, which are charged locally and are not part of any package transfer.

Can vegetarian and Jain meals be arranged?

Yes, but it needs confirming with hotels in advance. Options are good in Srinagar and thin out considerably at Gulmarg and Pahalgam, where hotel kitchens are the only realistic source.

Is Kashmir suitable for young children?

Pahalgam and Srinagar are comfortable for most children. Gulmarg at 2,650 m and Sonamarg at 2,730 m are cold and high enough that very young children can struggle, particularly in winter.

When are Kashmir packages cheapest?

March, early April, and November — shoulder months with usable weather and low occupancy. The most expensive weeks are the Christmas–New Year window and the June school holidays.

Are flights included in package prices?

Usually not in the base price. Airfare to Srinagar varies widely by season and origin city, so it is normally quoted separately once dates are fixed.
