▶ Glimpse of KashmirLoading Kashmir Trekking Packages…
Kashmir trekking packages lead you into the high alpine country above the valley. The Kashmir Great Lakes trek crosses three passes past seven turquoise lakes, while Tarsar-Marsar from Aru Valley is shorter and greener.
Our treks include a qualified trek leader, local guides and cooks, tents, sleeping bags, all meals on the trail, and transfers to and from Srinagar.
Kashmir lies in the far north of India, held between the Great Himalayan range and the Pir Panjal. People have called it Paradise on Earth for centuries, and the landscape still earns the name. Good Kashmir Trekking Packages should let you see each side of it:
Most Kashmir Trekking Packages combine several of these places into one comfortable route, so you see different sides of the valley without rushing.
Houseboats line the shore and shikaras glide between floating gardens and lotus beds. A sunset shikara ride and an early visit to the floating market are part of almost every itinerary.
The Gulmarg Gondola lifts you to Kongdori and Apharwat Peak. Snow fields in winter, wildflower meadows in summer, plus Strawberry Valley and Drung Waterfall nearby.
Pine forests, open meadows and the clear Lidder River make Pahalgam calm and unhurried. Walk by the water or ride a pony to Baisaran.
Built in the Mughal era, this garden steps down in terraces with water channels and fountains under old chinar trees.
Asia's largest tulip garden blooms in long colourful rows below the Zabarwan hills from late March to April.
The Meadow of Gold sits along the Sindh River beneath snowfields. Thajiwas Glacier is a short pony ride away.
An ancient hilltop temple with wide views over Srinagar, Dal Lake and the Jhelum. A quiet, reflective stop.
A Mughal fort on a hill with a shrine, a temple and a gurudwara on its slopes, and views across the old city.
A high mountain pass with open views, cool air and snow walls into early summer.
The right time for Kashmir Trekking Packages depends on what you want to see. Each season gives the valley a different look:
| Season | Months | Key Highlights |
|---|---|---|
| Spring | March – May | Tulip Garden, almond blossoms, fresh green valleys, early treks |
| Summer | June – August | Green meadows, pleasant days, rafting, high-altitude treks |
| Autumn | September – November | Golden chinars, apple and saffron harvest, clear skies, fewer crowds |
| Winter | December – February | Snowfall, skiing and snowboarding in Gulmarg, frozen lake edges |
Each part of the valley has its own activities, and the best Kashmir Trekking Packages include a mix of them:
