Places to Visit in Gulmarg – Things to Do in Gulmarg

In this post, I will provide a detailed overview of tourist places to visit in Gulmarg and nearby areas. Most of the tourist attractions in Gulmarg remain accessible throughout the year with an exception of a couple of places that we will talk about in the article below.

Gulmarg is one of the top tourist destinations in our country. Thousands of people flock here each year to spend some time in the lap of Mother Nature. It presents a different color in each season and all of them are amazingly beautiful.

I was recently in Gulmarg and spent a couple of days there exploring as much as I could. One of the biggest confusion I had before I went there was how much time did I need to spend in Gulmarg to see it all.

If you were wondering the same, then hopefully after reading this article, you will have an answer to your question and will be able to plan your journey better.

For more details on Gulmarg like how to reach there, public transport, and where to stay, please take a look at How to Plan your Trip to Gulmarg . If you have any questions, you can contact me on Instagram and I will be happy to answer.

For getting the best hotel rates, and taxi charges, and to organize your trip to Kashmir, you can speak with  Kunal @ 9910 402 252 . Give him my reference and you will surely get a discounted rate.

Quick Navigation

Tourist Places to Visit in Gulmarg

So let me first begin by listing down places of tourist interest in Gulmarg town itself.

• Gulmarg Gondola

Without any doubt, a Gondola ride is by far the biggest tourist attraction of Gulmarg. It not only draws tourists here from other parts of the country but even from Kashmir itself.

The cable car brings tourists from Gulmarg to the top of Apharwat peak and the views that it offers from the top are definitely worth the journey. I have discussed Gulmarg Gondola in detail in a different article; How to Plan Your Gulmarg Gondola Ride .

The Gondola ride remains available for all 12 months. It is only closed temporarily if the weather was not favorable and posed a safety risk.

• Maharani Temple

Also known simply as Rani Temple, it was built by Maharaja Hari Singh and is dedicated to Lord Shiva. It is named Maharani temple because the queen Maharani Mohini Bai used to perform prayers here every day.

Also Read: How to Plan a Trip to Kashmir – A Complete Travel Guide

The small temple sits on the top of a hillock, right next to the main market area, overlooking the golf course. You will have to climb up a steep set of stairs to reach it.

It is probably the most visited tourist destination in Gulmarg. Almost everyone who comes here goes to the temple to pay respect.

Gulmarg Golf Course

It is considered one of the highest golf courses in the world. Entry is free for tourists. You can just walk through the golf course and for Rs. 350 per hour, you can even play some golf here. The workers at the Golf Club will be more than eager to have you come and play.

• St. Mary’s Church

This beautiful church was built here in Gulmarg during British rule in India. This Victorian Architectural Wonder is located quite close to the Golf course and Maharani temple.

Also Read: The Life & Legend of Habba Khatoon

Maharaja Palace

This palace was built by Maharaja Ranbir Singh of Kashmir and was once his residence. It is now open for tourists for a nominal fee. There are some ancient weapons on display inside the palace which are worth seeing.

Children’s Park

This is not really much of a tourist place. It is actually just a children’s park but is located in the meadows and is quite beautiful. The entire setup of the park actually is quite calm and peaceful making it great for a small walk.

• Strawberry Valley

This is not actually a valley or anything but just a part of Gulmarg where there is a small strawberry plantation. Even the plantation is alive during the winter season only. The rest of the time it is just a bunch of dried-up plants, nothing more.

There is a campsite here though by the name of Gulmarg Meadows. So if you are interested in camping and want to stay a bit out of main Gulmarg town then go to Strawberry valley.

• Bota Pathri

Bota Pathri is actually a restricted area and you will need a local guide and a local taxi to get there. From Gulmarg, you first reach the Army camp and will be stopped at the check post there unless you were in a local taxi.

If you had permission for Bota Pathri, you can drive for about 3 kilometers from the check post to reach this place. Bota Pathri in itself is nothing too great but the drive from Gulmarg to Bota Pathri is quite scenic.

For more details, please take a look at Gulmarg to Bota Pathri Road Trip .

Alpather Lake

This lake is also known locally as Frozen lake due to the fact that it freezes completely in the winter season. It is situated at the top of Apharwat Peak and you will have to trek for 2 hours from Gondola Phase 2 to get there.

It is about 3 kilometers only but will definitely take it out of you due to the steep climb. To know more, please read How to Plan your Trek to Alpather Lake .

Apharwat Peak

Apharwat Peak is a summit, situated at a height of 4,390 meters (14,403 ft) above sea level. It receives heavy snowfall and remains covered with snow for much of the year.

The peak is actually visible from everywhere in Gulmarg. It is just the biggest mountain right in front of your eyes. You don’t even need to go anywhere or plan a trip here separately. The Gondola ride itself is all about climbing up the Apharwat peak.

Tourist Places in Gulmarg

So that was your list of all the tourist places in Gulmarg. Now let me show you how and where are these located.

• # 1 spot in the picture is where Maharaja Palace is
• # 2 is the Maharani temple. This is also where the main market of Gulmarg is.
• # 3 is the St Mary’s church.
• Hiding behind that small hill and about 3 kilometers of walk away is the children’s park and Strawberry valley marked as 4 & 5

So yes, you will be seeing the Golf Course all the time anyway and you can walk around it in 2 hours to see the rest of the tourist places.

Places to Visit Near Gulmarg

Now let me talk about some tourist places that are not really in Gulmarg but in the nearby areas.

Drung Waterfall

Drung Waterfall, also known as Drang Waterfall or Durung Waterfall, is a destination that must find a place in your itinerary if you are planning a winter trip to Kashmir. It may not be that large in size but the sight that it presents in the winter season is truly majestic and is sure to charm you off your feet.

As the temperature in the valley drops, the water of this fall starts to freeze. By early January, the entire face of the mountain that it falls from is covered by a thick layer of ice. The water still continues to flow down but is surrounded by huge icicles and snow.

The waterfall is located about 42 kilometers from Srinagar and 16 kilometers from Gulmarg. It remains accessible for all 12 months and can easily be included in your trip to Gulmarg. Below is a video of Drung Waterfall that I shot during one of my winter trips to Kashmir.

The shrine of Sufi Baba Reshi is one of the most famous and visited shrines in all of Kashmir. It is a beautiful dargah located about 5 kilometers away from Gulmarg.

You can actually visit it either while going to Gulmarg or while coming back to Srinagar. A road bifurcates towards the shrine a little after Tangmarg from where it is about 4 kilometers away.

To know more about it, please read The Life and Legend of Baba Reshi .

It is located near Phase 1 station of Gulmarg Gondola, also known as Kungdoor station. You will have to walk a few kilometers to get here. There is a small waterfall as well near Khilanmarg.

Ningle Nallah & Ferozpur Nallah

These are a couple of water streams near Gulmarg. These are however a few kilometers away and the best way to reach them would be a pony ride. Walking all the way will definitely get tiring for families.

Must Visit Places in Gulmarg

Now out of the above, If I was to name must-visit places, my choice would be Gulmarg Gondola, Maharani Temple, St. Mary’s Church, and Golf Course. If you don’t mind walking a little more then you can also include Maharaja Palace in the list.

For the ones who are fit enough to trek and climb a little, then a trek to Alpather Lake will top this list. You can skip Strawberry valley, the nallahs, Khilanmarg, the children’s park, etc if you were short on time.

If you were only making a day trip from Srinagar to Gulmarg, then Golf Course, Maharani Temple, and St. Mary’s Church are the places you can visit. If you had some time in hand, you can also go for the Gondola ride, at least to Phase 1.

Time Needed

Two days are all that you really need to see all that there is to see in Gulmarg. If you have more days in hand then, by all means, do stay for a day more. But 2 days is the minimum that I will recommend.

Arrive here on Day 1 and just walk around seeing all the places I numbered in the picture above. On Day 2, go for a Gondola ride, trek to Alpather lake, and come back to Gulmarg.

On Day 3, wake up early and walk to Strawberry valley, Children’s park, and Maharaja palace. You will be back at your hotel in 2-3 hours after which you can check out and be on your way.

Things to Do in Gulmarg

Let me also briefly talk about some of the tourist activities that you can enjoy while you were in Gulmarg. Enjoying the natural beauty of the place and photography are the obvious ones so I will skip those.

Gondola Ride

This is what the majority of the tourists come to Gulmarg for, at least the local Kashmiri families. The 20 odd minutes ride from Gulmarg to the Phase 2 station is an experience in itself.

Playing Golf

It does not matter if you actually know how to play the game or not. For Rs. 350 per 45 minutes, you can play a friendly game with your friends and have fun. The instructors at the golf course will be more than happy to show you how.

In the winter season, the golf course gets converted into a ski ground. Like Golf, even if you do not know how to Ski, you can definitely try your hand at the sport for a few hundred rupees.

Winter Sports in Gulmarg

Other than skiing, several other winter sports like sledding, riding a snowmobile, zorbing, etc are some of the other activities you can enjoy.

Winter Festival

In the month of January, a winter festival is held in Gulmarg. Ski competitions and some local programs become the highlight of this festival.

These are available in plenty and you can rent an ATV in the main market area. They usually take you for half an hour’s ride from the market area, through the forest, and exit near the strawberry valley. You can either just sit behind the ATV driver to enjoy the ride or even drive it on your own.

This is probably the most popular activity that most tourists do. The moment you reach Gulmarg, you will have numerous pony owners asking you if you wanted to go for a ride for a few hundred Rupees.

What they usually do is take you sightseeing on the pony. You will ride the pony around in the area around the golf course while visiting places like Maharani temple and St. Mary’s church on the way.

The trek to Alpather Lake can easily be done in a single day. Other than that, you can also hire a guide and trek down from Gulmarg to Baba Reshi Shrine through the forest.

Places to Visit in Gulmarg in Summer

To provide a quick summary, mentioned below are the places you can visit in the summer season.

• Golf Course

All of the places that I listed above can be visited in Gulmarg in the summer season. It will entirely depend on the time you have in hand.

Places to Visit in Gulmarg in Winter

For a winter trip, the below-mentioned places should be on your list.

In the winter season, the two places that will definitely be out of reach are Bota Pathri and Alpather Lake. The rest will remain accessible.

The road to Bota Pathri usually gets closed in the winter season but if it was open, you can definitely go there as well. Do keep in mind that you need to rent a local taxi for this which will cost you around Rs. 2500 for a round trip.

Gulmarg Golf Course gets closed in the winter season. It just turns into a vast snow-covered ground that gets used for asking and other winter sports.

Places to Visit in Gulmarg – Conclusion

I hope the information above on places to visit in Gulmarg was of help. If you have any questions, you can contact me on Instagram and I will be happy to answer. You can also consider subscribing to my YouTube channel and asking a question there.

4. Ningle Nallah and Ferozepur Nallah

These two scenic mountain streams are very attractive to look at as the gushing cold water beating on the hard rocks is a scene to die for. Fishing is particularly popular in Ferozepur Nallah and it is ideal for people to look for what is great in these places. You can sit and watch the downstream or take a freezing bath in its ice-cold water, which we highly not recommend. *wink*

5. Shiva Temple

The Shiva temple of Gulmarg is a quaint old temple of Lord Shiva and was the royal temple of the Dogra dynasty, the last monarchy of the state of Jammu & Kashmir. It is serene and peaceful and is a dreamer’s paradise. It is frequented by devotees throughout the years sparing the winters. If you’re in Gulmarg, you need to visit this place once! The best hotels in Gulmarg are up for grabs this vacation season.

6. Shrine of Baba Reshi

If you’re religious and plan to visit the holy places around Gulmarg then Baba Reshi’s shrine is a must-see. Nestled in the calm of the mountains, this shrine was built in 1480 and was dedicated in the name of Baba Reshi, a Muslim saint who stayed and prayed in this beautiful valley. The old-world Kashmiri architecture is excellent and you cannot take your eyes off the craftsmanship of medieval era artists and sculptures.  Gulmarg hotels need to be booked beforehand if the you want to keep all the troubles at bay.

7. Saint Mary’s Church

Indicating the perfect diversity of India, Gulmarg is home to some ancient European art as well! Saint Mary’s Church is a particularly attractive destination in Gulmarg and represents 20th Century Victorian architecture. The location is beautiful, to say the least, and one has to visit this place in order to get a proper idea! It is a memory of our British heritage and will make you reflect on your roots and the legacy of your land! It is open every day throughout the year from 10:00 AM to 5:00 PM.

8. Children’s Park

Last but not least, the Children’s Park in Gulmarg undoubtedly makes the list of top places to visit in Gulmarg. The beautiful meadows and green pastures with ponies are nothing short of a child’s wonderland. Its dreamy beauty is perfectly accentuated with various rides for kids including live pony rides! If you want to explore the mountain lands and have children then this is the place that you should seek. 

9. Adventure Sports in Gulmarg

If you’re an adventure junkie and are in Gulmarg then you are lucky, my friend. From Skiing on the snowy mountain slopes to rafting on the vicious mountain rivers, Gulmarg can fulfill the daily dose of adrenaline rush to its fullest. The places are filled with adventure sports of all kinds including bungee jumping and paragliding. You can explore the various options and embark on the true spirit of all of them! Also, remember that Gulmarg hotels need to be booked beforehand to avoid 11 th hour bookings and confusion. 

It is nothing short of a true Paradise for the adventure seeker, the nomadic mountain lover, the passionate explorer. However, abiding by the rules and taking proper precautionary measures is highly advised to stay out of risky situations. Also, you can take amazing treks around its valleys or explore the Himalayan motorways on bikes of your choice. The options of joy are endless and you cannot get out of the ethos of this place!

Gulmarg also has a large golf course for cleaner sports in life that you may want to engage yourself in! The large green pasture is ideal to spend a morning striking shots and scoring big. At an altitude of 2,650 m, it is the highest green golf course in the world. The Gulmarg Golf Club was started in 1911 by the British who used the place as a holiday resort. The origin of Gulmarg as the golfing center goes back to the late 19th century when a 6-hole course was made in 1890-91 by Colonel Neville Chamberlain.  Also, Gulmarg hotels are the best when it comes to services and amenities.

If you’re not an avid golfer and just want to try your hand at the sport as a vacation spirit, the club has trainers and guides to help you with that as well! Now, how about a cool golf lesson on your vacation?

Ending Note
