About this drive

Pahalgam is about ninety minutes beyond Anantnag, roughly three hours from Srinagar. The drive down passes the saffron fields at Pampore and the ruins at Avantipura, both worth a short stop. The vehicle stays with you all day and brings you back to Srinagar in the evening.

Where you stop

  1. Pickup from your Srinagar hotel
  2. Pampore saffron fields
  3. Avantipura ruins
  4. Pahalgam and the Lidder valley
  5. Return to Srinagar

What the fare covers

Included

  • The vehicle and its driver for the whole booking
  • Fuel, tolls and parking
  • State permits where the route needs them
  • Pickup from your hotel, houseboat or the airport
  • Waiting time at the stops on your route

Not included

  • Hotels, houseboats and any other accommodation
  • Meals and refreshments
  • Entry tickets, gondola tickets and pony charges
  • Local union vehicles where a destination requires them — the inner circuit at Gulmarg, Aru and Chandanwari at Pahalgam, and the winter run above Gagangir into Sonmarg
  • Anything caused by weather or a road closure outside the driver's control

Before you book this route

Aru, Betaab and Chandanwari are local union vehicles

The last legs up the Lidder valley are reserved for Pahalgam-registered vehicles, again a union rule that applies to everyone. Your vehicle waits at Pahalgam while you take a union cab for those three points, and that fare is paid at the stand on the day.
