Expert advice, local itineraries, and hidden gems of the Himalayas.
In August 2026 Zahid met Gujarati guests and followers at TTF Ahmedabad, and this spring a Gujarati family group told us about their first snowfall in Gurez. Here's how we plan a Kashmir trip from Gujarat: flights, trains, best months, a 6-night route, veg food and 2026 prices.
Choose Gulmarg if snow, the Gondola and a big open meadow are the reason for your trip. Choose Pahalgam if you want river, pine forest and slow valley walks. Gulmarg is closer (51 km from Srinagar) and works well with one night up there; Pahalgam (96 km) deserves two nights. Our 2026 packages start from ₹16,999 (Gulmarg, 4D/3N) and ₹19,999 (Pahalgam, 5D/4N) per person.
