A Gondola ride offers captivating views of the Kashmir Valley, while a visit to the Khilangmarg peak allows for intimate moments amidst nature's splendor.
Our journey further takes us to Pahalgam, where the charming meadows of Aru and the famous Betaab Valley await exploration. The Avantipur Ruins add a touch of history and mystique to the journey, presenting a glimpse of ancient architecture amidst natural grandeur. Whether indulging in rafting on the Lidder River or seeking souvenirs in the local market, Pahalgam offers an ideal blend of leisure and cultural immersion. An exciting excursion to Sonmarg, the epitome of beauty, unveils the flowery meadows and the glistening Thajiwas Glacier.
