Stillness & Story – A Gentle Journey Through Kashmir

Land in Srinagar and step gently into stillness. Let the mountains wrap around you.

In the evening, drift across Dal Lake in a Shikara, watching the light soften and the sky dissolve into gold. Overnight in Srinagar.

Head toward Gulmarg, with a few soulful stops—Kanihama for a peek into ancient pashmina weaving, and Drung Falls for a breath of cold mist and mountain energy.

End your day catching and dining on fresh trout at a local farm. Overnight in Gulmarg.

Slow walks through alpine meadows. A gondola ride to the second phase, where your packed lunch becomes a meal shared with silence and sky.

Optional ATV rides in the evening or simply a quiet sunset from your window. Overnight in Gulmarg.

Return to Srinagar with a stop at the Shankaracharya Temple for views that stretch across belief. Share a warm, home-cooked meal with a local family.

Glide through the floating market at dusk, where stories travel by boat. Overnight in Srinagar.

Drive to Pahalgam via a cricket bat workshop and an apple orchard (seasonal). Pause for a fresh trout meal at a riverside farm.

Arrive in Aru, where the mountains hum and time stretches its arms. Overnight in Pahalgam.

Visit a tucked-away cheese factory, then drift into the green silence of Aru and Betaab Valleys.

Sit by the stream, listen to nothing, feel everything. Overnight in Pahalgam.

Aharbal Falls first—roaring and secretive—then through the quiet lanes of Pulwama toward Sonamarg.

Let the journey move you as much as the destination. Overnight in Sonamarg.

Visit Thajwas Glacier early. Ride or walk. Then onward to Zero Point where road ends and awe begins.

Let the stillness do the talking. Overnight in Sonamarg.

A relaxed morning in Sonamarg. Watch the light shift across the meadows one last time. As you leave, Kashmir doesn’t fade—it follows, in memory, scent, and silence.

This isn’t goodbye. It’s until next time.
