Introduction:
India’s most northern state is also its most beautiful. The Himalayan ranges encircle the Jammu and Kashmir region. It also has some of the most spectacular sights on the planet. The lovely state of Kashmir is also known as ‘heaven on earth.’ The Hindu pilgrimage to Vaishno Devi Temple is also well-known in Jammu and Kashmir. We’ll show you how to make the most of your 7-Day Kashmir Itinerary today.
CULTURE
The first of its kind, Kashmir online is the place to go if you want to learn everything there is to know about the Earth’s paradise. Kashmir’s culturally diverse hues are presented to you. We understand that everyone’s motivation and goal are different.
It’s different when it comes to travelling. Explore Kashmir according to your preferences and interests, whether you’re looking for a relaxing or romantic vacation, a trip to a beautiful location, an adventurous or sports activity, a cultural, gourmet, or spiritual experience.
Rafting
River rafting is an exhilarating activity in which participants navigate turbulent river currents. Roaring rivers and deep lakes abound in Kashmir, but these bodies of water provide more than just aesthetic pleasure. River rafting, one of the most difficult activities, takes place there. Gliding down gushing icy cold streams in the midst of heavily forested mountainous regions or peaceful countryside adds slicing moments to your journey story.
Rafting in Kashmir is available in a variety of grades for different types of rafters. Whereas the gradients in the Lidder River at Pahalgam are gentle and better suited for beginners, the gradients in Sonamarg are comparatively more challenging at a few spots, making it more popular with professional thrill-seekers.
In Kashmir, white river rafting is more popular than regular river rafting, with river rapids ranging from Grade I to III, though Grade IV is possible in some areas. Rafting on the Lidder River in Pahalgam and the Sindh River in Sonamarg are two of Kashmir’s most popular rafting spots.
Ride in a Gondola
For people of all ages, a gondola ride is one of the more unusual things to do in Kashmir. It’s the most popular activity among visitors to the valley, whether they’re families, lovers, or adventurers.The Gulmarg gondola ride is Asia’s highest and longest ropeway.. This thrilling adventure, which is also the world’s second highest and longest, has enchanted visitors.
At each of these locations, the clouds are so dense that you feel as if you’re standing on top of them. Nanda Devi, the Pir Panjal Mountain range, and the Line of Control can all be seen along the way. You must experience the thrill of being suspended in the air at an elevation of 13,450 feet with nothing between you and the valley below except the safety of a Gondola car.
Camping requires no introduction, as the craze of spending the night in the great outdoors has recently piqued. The camping experience, on the other hand, can be redefined on a regular basis, especially when the destination is none other than ‘The Paradise on Earth.’
You can find a beautiful retreat here, count the stars in the sparkling night sky, relax in the peaceful atmosphere, and watch the golden sunrise and sunset over the snow-capped peaks while camping. In Kashmir, good camping spots include Pahalgam, Aru, Chandanwari, Baisaran, Yousmarg, Sanasar, Gulmarg, and Patnitop.
