4-Day Srinagar, Gulmarg & Pahalgam Tour in Kashmir

SrinagarGulmargPahalgamSrinagar

Step off the plane at Srinagar International Airport and into your private air-conditioned cab, ready to trace Kashmir’s most scenic loop. Begin with a shikara ride across Dal Lake’s mirrored waters, then wander the terraced Mughal gardens of Nishat Bagh and Shalimar Bagh before climbing the Zabarwan Range to Shankaracharya Temple for sunset views over the valley. The next morning, your experienced driver navigates the winding mountain roads to Gulmarg, where you spend the day exploring the grassy meadows and pine forests at your own pace. On day three, pause at the 9th-century Awantipora Ruins before reaching Pahalgam. Afternoon unfolds in Betaab Valley’s emerald glades and the pine-fringed serenity of Aru Valley, where the Lidder River accompanies your walk. This trip suits travellers who want Kashmir’s iconic landscapes without rushing between them.
