Kashmir Tours & Travel

Valleys, lakes, and mountain calm

Overview

Kashmir is framed around Dal Lake, meadow drives, and cool mountain air. Travellers typically balance Srinagar’s lakeside pace with day trips to Gulmarg, Pahalgam, or Sonamarg — choosing seasons for gardens and mild weather, or for snow-focused scenery.

Best time
March–June for mild valley weather; July–August for lush greens; December–February for snow scenes — timing depends on travel style.
Recommended duration
5–7 days for a balanced Srinagar + Gulmarg + Pahalgam style circuit
