About Pahalgam

Pahalgam, lovingly known as the Valley of Shepherds, is one of Kashmir’s most beautiful mountain destinations. Located in the Anantnag district, it is surrounded by lush valleys, soaring pine forests and snow-capped Himalayan peaks. The crystal-clear Lidder River flows through the town, adding a gentle rhythm to its peaceful landscape.

Famous as a honeymoon destination and as the gateway to the Amarnath Yatra, Pahalgam offers something meaningful for every traveller. Betaab Valley, Aru Valley and Chandanwari invite visitors to explore wide green meadows, riverside paths and spectacular mountain scenery. Adventure seekers can enjoy trekking, rafting, camping, horse riding and trout fishing, while nature lovers can simply relax beside the river.

Spring brings blossoms, summer offers cool weather and outdoor activities, autumn covers the forests in golden colour, and winter turns the valley into a serene snow-covered escape. With rich local culture, warm hospitality and natural beauty in every season, Pahalgam is truly unforgettable.
