Exploring the heavenly side of Kashmir, the Kashmir Great Lake Trek offers a unique experience across three high passes. Five river valleys, and seven attractive alpine lakes in just a week. Each day, hikers will experience azure skies and breathtaking mountain views, lush meadows, and river banks. With an apex of 4,180 meters, the 65 km trek is an excellent choice for those looking for a challenging adventure in the Great Himalayas. Although this trek can be relatively easy to complete, hikers should be prepared for long days of walking up to 10 km or more every single day during the trek.
