About Gulmarg Tourism

Cradled in the snow capped mountains of the Himalayas, and just a few miles from the Line of Control, this panoramic meadow of flowers, has been a popular hill resort of India. However, on-going militant activities has led to a drastic drop in tourist numbers in the past few decades. Earlier addressed by the shepherds as Gaurimarg, the name Gulmarg was given by a 16th century Sultan called Yusuf Shah, who was captivated by its wild flowers and grassy slopes. Located at an altitude of 2,650m, and covering an area of 3 sq km, this cup shaped meadow, 56 km from Srinagar, is like a fantasy you would want to get lost in. Gulmarg today is acknowledged not only for its scenic surroundings, but also as the world's highest golf course and a premier ski resort in the country.

 

Reviews on Gulmarg travel(What people have to say)
hp, Mumbai | 19th June 2009
True 'swarg' on earth

Overview of the destination
Approximately 2 hours drive from Srinagar this is a completely different experience. Gondola ride upto second stage is must for the ultimate experience of theFood, sight-seeing and shopping
Nothing special about any food joint, average and not so good. No shopping at Gulmarg - only sight-seeing.Activities & things to do
Photographs to be taken all along the gondola ride and at all stages. Sledge riding and skiing on the top.Travel tips, How to reach, travel warnings etc.
Beware of local people. Horsewala, snow-clotheswala, local guides everybody try to fetch maximum money from traveller, heavy bargains required.
