5N Kashmir Tour | Srinagar, Gulmarg & Lidder – I Fly

6 Days 5 Nights

Five nights from Srinagar to Gulmarg and Pahalgam with selected meals, a Dal houseboat and gondola ride.

Dal Lake, Gulmarg and Pahalgam share the nights on this five-night valley triangle, a compact take on the classic loop. Houseboats, Avantipura ruins, the gondola to Kongdori and the Mughal-garden trio all stay on the schedule, gathered into a shorter, lower-mileage circuit between the three main towns.

The Short Triangle

Avantipura's ruins greet the Pahalgam leg, then the Lidder valley settles a slower pace over two nights. Gulmarg's gondola lifts toward Kongdori across the meadows, and Srinagar's Cheshma Shahi, Nishat Bagh and Shalimar Garden fill a Mughal-garden morning. A houseboat night and a shikara glide round out the compact loop before departure.

Stays And Meals

Three-star hotels chosen for their location anchor each leg of the five-night route, with selected meals included as marked. Selected meals are noted in the day plan, with other dining easy to find nearby. The valley's pine slopes and meadows frame most of the driving days.
