Expert advice, local itineraries, and hidden gems of the Himalayas.
No friends to go with? Our strangers-only group trip runs Delhi to Delhi by bus, 5 nights / 6 days, with travel, stays, meals and sightseeing included. WhatsApp us for the current rate. Here's how the group is formed, what the bus ride is like and what to pack.
November in Kashmir for two: IMD cold-night averages, heated stays, Srinagar, Gulmarg and Pahalgam for couples, and honest snow odds before you book.
December in Kashmir for two: below-freezing nights, a fair but never certain chance of Gulmarg snow, heated rooms first, and a six-day shape for couples.
Choose Gulmarg if the Gondola, a big meadow and reliable winter snow are the reason for your trip. Choose Sonmarg if you want the Sindh river and a quieter drive toward Thajiwas glacier. Both work as same-day trips from Srinagar, and our return cab to either costs ₹2,500 in an Etios or ₹3,500 in an Innova Crysta, tolls and parking included.
Our Keran reels showed India on one bank of the Kishanganga and Pakistan-administered Kashmir on the other. Here's how to get the permit, what the road from Srinagar is like, where to stay and how to behave near the LoC.
Five to six days is enough for most first trips to Kashmir: it covers Srinagar, Gulmarg, Pahalgam and Sonmarg without rushing. Four days suits a Srinagar-based trip with one or two day trips. Seven days lets you slow down, add an extra Pahalgam night or a place like Gurez. Add about two days each way if you come by train.
