Srinagar
Cradled by the Zabarwan mountains, Srinagar is built around Dal Lake — glide across it by Shikara at dawn, catch the floating vegetable market, then wander Mughal gardens and Pashmina bazaars.
Gulmarg
Framed by pine forests and Apharwat Peak in Baramulla district, Gulmarg turns from a wildflower-and-golf-course meadow in summer to a world-famous ski run served by the highest gondola on Earth in winter.
Pahalgam
Set in Anantnag district on the banks of the Lidder River, Pahalgam is the gateway to Betaab Valley, Aru and the Amarnath Yatra, with trekking, rafting, camping and trout fishing along the way.
Doodhpathri
Tucked in Budgam district at about 2,730m, Doodhpathri takes its name from the milky-white glacial streams that thread through its meadows — a quiet full-day escape for horse riding and photography.
Yusmarg
A lesser-explored meadow in Budgam at about 2,396m, ringed by pine forest and the Doodh Ganga river — an easy, peaceful day trip from Srinagar for trekking and horse riding.
Gurez Valley
A remote valley in Bandipora district at roughly 8,000ft, where the Kishanganga River winds beneath pyramid-shaped Habba Khatoon Peak, home to the Dard-Shina culture and Kashmir's most untouched villages.
