Kashmir Trekking Places and Mountain Landscapes
Trekking in Kashmir offers a remarkable combination of alpine lakes, wildflower meadows, pine forests, glacier-fed streams and high Himalayan passes. Many trails pass through traditional shepherd areas and remote valleys where the scenery changes from one campsite to the next.
The Kashmir Himalayas are especially known for their high-altitude lakes, including Vishansar, Krishansar, Tarsar, Marsar, Gangabal and Kounsarnag. These destinations attract trekkers looking for mountain scenery, camping adventures and quieter routes away from busy tourist areas.
The best trekking season depends on the route, snow conditions and local access. Many high-altitude treks are undertaken during summer and early autumn, while lower-altitude hiking and other mountain adventures may be possible at different times of the year. Trekking in Kashmir India.

Thank you Riyaz ……. You and your team has done a good job !!! we are happy with your arrangement – thank you.
Thanks to Hanif, Chacha (one of the best cook I’ve ever seen in any trek route) and Moibaba – entire team was so helpful and friendly !!! it will be a memorable trip of my life.
If we ever get a chance to come back to Kashmir for another trek I would prefer you to arrange the same for us. I hope soon there will be peace and prosperity in the valley………..
Thanks Riyaz, for being such a good guide during my travel in the breathtaking Kashmir. All about kashmir made my jaw drop. Hope I can come back there again someday.
Thanks Riyaz, Tariq and Abid for arranging very comfortable trip of trekking. Although we planned the trip for Tarsar Lake, we could not reach there due to heavy snow on that side. As per the suggestion of Tariq, we stayed at Lidderwat and went for day trip towards Satlanjan side. The stay was very comfortable and food etc. provided on the trek was great. One should follow the trek routes as per the weather conditions. We will plan for the Great Lakes Trek next time with Riyaz.
its nice time with KING SULEMAN (Riyaz Bhai & Tarique Bhai)
feeling very Nice Experience in Kashmir…..
Beauty of Kashmir Is Good….
We went trekking with Riyaz end of April, in the Aru Valley and had a very nice time altough we couldn’t do the trekking we wanted – no one to blame except the snow that hasn’t melted yet! We stayed in Litterwat, covered with snow; kids have been playing in the snow, building snowmen and building houses with sticks. Riyaz had organised it all very well, including in Srinagar where we visited the gardens, went to Gulmarg and stayed in a nice houseboat. I definitely think I will have to go back during summer time to enjoy the trekking in Aru valley!
thank you claire for your feed back , i have upload some videos of your trekking in snow.
