Pathankot To Gulmarg

Beautiful Valleys & Snow Capped Mountains

The place Gulmarg is well connected to Srinagar, which is reachable by air/road from Jammu/Delhi. You can take trains upto Jammu & then can have road drives thru longest tunnel of Asea. Air travel can be from Jammu & while approaching Srinagar, the view of the snow capped mountains will add thrills to you. For outdoor activities out in snow, cover yourself with adequate winter wears which is available for a price. Have snow goggles to avoid the blinding of eyes. Balance yourself while walking/skating on the snow, else the fall will be too much painful or may be worse. Don't talk a lot with each other which will make you to take more breaths & eventually tiring as the mountain air is thin with less oxygen compared to normal places at low altitude. Carry enough medicines for aches,colds & muscle cramps.

If there was heaven

Gulmarg is a hilly area, so all those with breathlessness and other breathing problems, please ensure to carry your back up's. As there is a lot to walk and climb, it is adviseble to have light food and warm clothing - as in winters the snow fall is very very heavy - and the strom gets crazy - so be mindful of it :)
