Detailed Itinerary

Day 1 Arrive in Srinagar / Boat Ride
Afternoon: Enjoy a boat ride on Dal Lake, one of the most iconic landmarks in India. Dotted with numerous beautiful sights, the city of Srinagar looks stunning, surrounded by landscaped flowering gardens, crystal-clear lakes, magnificent structures, and bustling markets.

Amidst the serene waters, Dal Lake shines as Srinagar’s jewel. This hillside lake is synonymous with the carved, colorful wooden houseboats drifting casually through the placid waters against the backdrop of the misty Pir Panjal Mountains. Spanning over 22 square kilometers, the lake’s beauty is breathtaking at every corner.

One of the most exhilarating experiences in Srinagar is taking a ride on a Shikara—a small, wooden, carved boat. Later, return to the houseboat for the night.

Overnight Stay: Houseboat in Srinagar
After breakfast at the hotel, transfer to Pahalgam, also known as the "Valley of Shepherds." Upon arrival, check into your hotel.

Enjoy nature and a walk around the banks of the Lidder River.
Pahalgam is famous for its trekking routes and serves as the base camp for the Amarnath Pilgrimage.

After breakfast, proceed for sightseeing in Pahalgam by a local union cab.

  • Chandanwari (2,895 m | 16 km from Pahalgam): Starting point of the Amarnath Yatra. The road to Chandanwari is curvy and requires skilled driving. Beyond Chandanwari, the track becomes steeper and can only be accessed on foot or by pony.

  • Panchtarni: Located 13 km beyond Sheshnag, it is the last stop before the Amarnath Cave.

In the evening, visit the Pahalgam Bazaar.
