The enchanting valley of Kashmir is often described as paradise on Earth, and it’s only when you see its snow-capped mountains, walk through lush pine forests, hear the whispering chinar leaves, and glide on a shikara across Dal Lake, that you truly understand its magic. To help you experience this beauty up close, we’ve crafted an ideal Kashmir itinerary that captures the essence of this stunning destination in just a few days.
Best Time to Visit:
The best time to visit Kashmir is from March to October, when the weather is pleasant and the valley is in full bloom. Spring and summer are ideal for sightseeing, shikara rides, and exploring gardens, while autumn brings golden chinar leaves and scenic beauty. For snow lovers, December to February is perfect for a winter wonderland experience.
