Must visit places in Pahalgam

While every spot in Pahalgam is a must visit, not everyone has the time or money for that. Hence, we have compiled a list of the most popular places in Pahalgam that you just can’t miss.

• Kolahoi Glacier- We will start off by saying that this is definitely not for the faint-hearted. We suggest that you skip to the next one if you are scared of heights or not into trekking. One has to go through a  pretty difficult trek to reach the top. But once you reach 18,000 feet, the view will leave you speechless.

• Aru village and valley- Aru village and valley is a beautiful place that you have to visit in Pahalgam. The drive to the valley itself is pretty scenic. Lush green landscapes and pine trees cover the land. You can also find a lot of young calves around the area along with horses.
• Sheshnag lake- Located not far away from Pahalgam is the Sheshnag Lake. Legend has it that Sheshnag, the sacred serpent burrowed in this lake and lives here till day. The lake is crystal clear and surrounded by mighty mountains.
• Betaab valley- Betaab valley looks, like something straight out of a Bollywood song. Lush green meadows, pine trees, snow-capped mountains, and winding streams constitute the place. This is a must visit for couples especially.
• Lidderwat- Lush green meadows and thick forests describe Lidderwat. Located within 20kms from Lidderwat, the place is breathtaking. You can go here on ponies or cabs.
