Overview
This is the shortest tour to Gurez and hence we have called it the weekend escape. We received a lot of queries from our guests who wanted to Gruez but had very few days. So we came up with this tour plan. 3 days of complete bliss. In this 3-day tour, you will have the sightseeing of the best places of Gurez Valley along with the places that fall on the way. Places like Manasbal Lake and Wular Lake – the biggest lakes of Kashmir
Why Gurez Valley
Welcome to India’s best offbeat destination – Gurez Valley. It will transport you to a different vibe. Here you will be in the middle of culture, architecture, nature, and the excitement on the way. You will see a different world here. People of a different tribe called Shina speak different languages, and have a different culture and traditions. The housing structure is primitive with mud and logs. And the natural beauty is raw and pristine with virgin mountains, meadows, and mountain peaks. The time comes to a halt here and you go into some trance in this valley.
Gurez Valley is dubbed and recognized as the best offbeat destination in India. Situated towards the far end of Kashmir and along the border, this picturesque valley has the best serenity and charm in entire India.
Tour Plan
Day 1: Drive to Gurez. Mnasbal Lake & Razdan Pass
Enjoy the utter scenic drive with Cliffhangers. As you will leave Srinagar you will be going through the beautiful countryside and reaching the breathtaking Manasbal Lake. Explore this lake, indulge in some water sports activities, or have a quiet Shikara ride here. Further up, you will be welcomed by the largest freshwater lake in India – Wular Lake. Spend some time here to see the vastness of this lake.
The road takes an upward hilly path from Bandipora and you will be amazed to see the panoramic view at Razdan Pass – The pass connecting Kashmir mainland to Gurez. Stop here for some memorable pictures and have tea or coffee at a nearby dhaba.
On this day you will reach Gurez in the afternoon. Take rest for today as you reach there.
Day 2: Explore the Essence of Gurez Valley
This is the day to explore the mainland of Gurez. Post breakfast, our driver will ferry you to the ever-fascinating Kishangang River. This is the river that is the lifeline of Gurez. It originates in Kashmir and then goes over to Pakistan. There is a huge dam built here which you will feel is a large freshwater lake. Explore the shores of this dam and river.
Another interesting spot you will visit is Khandyal Top. This is a top which gives a panoramic view of the entire Dawar Valley of Gurez. From Khandyal Top you can take up a short hike if you love to explore the trails. Or just relax here and feel the breeze and the surrounding landscape.
For lunch, take up the place at Log Hut Cafe, this is an army cafe and has some good food and ambiance.
