Frequently asked questions
How do you visit Kashmir by train?
Trains have long terminated at Jammu Tawi, from where Srinagar is about 260 km by road through the mountains — budget most of a day for that leg. The Udhampur–Srinagar–Baramulla line has since extended rail towards the valley itself. Services on the newer sections have changed more than once, so check IRCTC for what is actually running on your dates rather than relying on any website, including this one.
Which railway station is nearest to Kashmir?
Jammu Tawi has historically been the practical railhead for the valley, with Udhampur and Katra further along the line towards Srinagar. Rail now runs deeper in on the Udhampur–Srinagar–Baramulla link. Which station suits you depends on current services, so confirm on IRCTC before booking a road transfer to meet a train.
Is it safe to travel to Kashmir right now?
No website should be your source for this, including ours — conditions change and a page written months ago cannot tell you about today. Check your own government travel advisory, and the Jammu & Kashmir administration for local notices, before you book. What we can tell you is what we see on the ground: we are based in Srinagar, and if we think your dates are unwise we will say so rather than take the booking.
What is not included in a typical Kashmir package?
Most packages exclude return airfare, Gulmarg gondola tickets, local union taxis at Pahalgam and Sonamarg, pony rides, and entry tickets at ticketed gardens. Union taxi charges in particular surprise people, because they are compulsory and separate from your package vehicle.
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.
Is 2 days enough for Kashmir?
Not realistically. Two days covers Srinagar itself — the Mughal gardens and a shikara ride — and little else. Gulmarg is 105 minutes each way and Pahalgam 150, so a single valley excursion consumes most of a day. Two nights is a stopover rather than a Kashmir trip.
