Srinagar to Gulmarg Kashmir By Road HD | By shared Sumo, Taxi and Bus | Kashmir Tour
Gulmarg is a hill station located in the state of Jammu & Kashmir in India.
The town is situated in the Pir Panjal Range in the western Himalayas at an altitude of 2,650 meters (8,690 ft).
The name Gulmarg, literally translating into “meadow of flowers” was awarded by Sultan Yusuf Shah Chak who frequented the place with his wife Habba Khatoon in the 16th century.
Gulmarg was also a favorite of Mughal Emperor Jahangir who is said to have collected as many as 21 wild flowers for his garden from here.
you can just drive to Srinagar city by either the regular Jammu – Srinagar highway; or the Mughal road through Shopian.
Once you arrive at Srinagar, you can then just continue driving towards Gulmarg via Tangmarg; which is a 2 to 3 hours drive covering a distance of about 60 kilometers.
Srinagar – Magam – Tangmarg – Gulmarg total 60 Kilometers.
From Srinagar to Tangmarg, it is mostly a straight drive on a flat road with little ascent.
You will not even feel like driving in a hill station actually.
It is after Tangmarg that the actual steep ascent starts and you climb up a winding road till Gulmarg.
Another god part is that the road is smooth and in good condition for the entire 60 kilometers of journey.
By Taxi - The best, easiest and most convenient way would be to rent a private taxi for the trip.
Depending on the type of cab you chose, taxi fare from Srinagar to Gulmarg would come out to be between Rs. 2000 to Rs. 2500 including fuel and driver.
You can either look for a taxi at the airport itself or book one in advance and have the drive pick you from the airport or railway station.
Srinagar to Gulmarg Shared Taxi
For budget travelers, I would still recommend a private taxi if you were traveling in a group and can share the cost among 5 to 6 people.
If you were however traveling solo then you can look for a shared cab as well; which in Kashmir is mostly a Sumo.
From Srinagar to Tangmarg, fare per person for shared cab wold be about Rs. 100 per person. From Tangmarg to Gulmarg then, it would cost another Rs. 50 to Rs. 70 per person.
Srinagar to Gulmarg by bus.
Traveling by Bus, you have two choices.
During summer season, there is a JKSRTC daily sightseeing Bus available in the morning from Tourist Reception Center.
My advice however would be to not rely on this service.
A better option would be the ordinary buses that the locals travel by. Problem however is that this bus is available only till Tangmarg.
There is no direct bus from Srinagar to all the way till Gulmarg; which is actually a bit surprising considering the kind of major tourist spot that Gulmarg is.
So what you will have to do then is to board a bus from Srinagar to Tangmarg. From Tangmarg, wait for a shared Sumo cab for Gulmarg which you will easily find.
Apart from the Sumo cabs, there are also mini private buses that ply between Tangmarg and Gulmarg.
Srinagar to Gulmarg bus fare in total would cost you about Rs. 200 per person; including the bus fare and shared cab charges from Tangmarg.
Srinagar Airport is the nearest airport to Gulmarg.

GULMARG : Travel from Srinagar + Cab, Accommodation & Boot Renting | KASHMIR Travel Guide | EP 02
Kashmir Vlog / My trip to Kashmir : Srinagar to Gulmarg is just a 45 min Drive through post the snow in Kashmir. Traveling to Gulmarg or Planning a trip to Gulmarg? or Pahalgam via Pulwama ( Avoid Pulwama or a trip Pahalgam bcoz of the terrorist attack for a while) .
This is Day 2 of our food culture trip in Kashmir, if you haven’t seen Kashmiri Food Part 1, you can watch it here:
The best Wazwan dish ever ie. Mutton Rista(a dish from Kashmiri Wazwan) in Gulmarg, Kashmir at Cafe Samovar of Kolahoi Green!!
The moment I laid my eyes on the Afarwat peaks of Gulmarg,I fell in love with the magical land of snow.I experienced the best hospitality and generous locals and enjoyed some mouthwatering
delicacies from Kashmiri Wazawan.
Day1: ~
TAXI/CAB
We booked a Cab/Innova from Srinagar for a one-way drop uptill our hotel Kolahoi Greens Resort, Gulmarg for Rs. 2000/-. This is the standard rate but I have heard if you can bargain
you can get it for Rs. 1700/- as well.
KOLAHOI GREENS RESORT :
A small 4 star rated hotel is perfectly located just next to the Gulmarg Gondola and all the attractions are located around it. It has been renovated just a year back and certainly
has beautiful woodwork, clean and centrally heated rooms. The service is just amazing. Book it online through Bookings.com or Goibibo.com for best deals, walk-in is really expensive Rs.8500/- per night.
We booked the same from Goibibo for Rs. 4500/ (Club Room) without breakfast, though the same deal was available on Bookings.com with breakfast (Check before you book). Look for Mr. Abid
he might help you with everything (my experience).
After a smooth check in we relaxed a bit. Went out for a walk in the evening and it got really dark at 6:00 pm, it was at least -5. Carry enough warm clothes, jackets, gloves and a cap as they
are a must have when you are visiting Gulmarg.
Don't talk to the guides unless you need them, at times it gets really annoying. We did not hire a guide for our visit to Gondola the next day.They might tell you its a must, but it not at
all required if you can manage everything on your own. Hire a skiing guide for sure if you want to go Skiing, they'll arrange everything for you.
You can find all the details here:
RENTING BOOTS/SKIING GEAR:
Everything is available on rent here, from boots to jackets to skiing gears you can get it on rent from various shops located in Tanmarg and Gulmarg on per day basis.Boots you can Rent from
Tanmarg only, rest you can get everything from Gulmarg only. There is a big renting shop option just below HILTOP HOTEL,in Gulmarg.
We rented the boots at Tanmarg only for 100/- Rs a pair/per day. You can get it for 75/- Rs as well if you explore.
After we almost froze in the cold, we wanted something really hot and soothing. We walked into the in-house restaurant of our hotel.
CAFE SAMOVAR:
Everything is great about this place from the moment you walk in. Beautiful woodwork and interiors, centrally heated , they have also provided extra blowers if you want more heat.
We ordered a cup of Kahwa(complimentary) and a bowl of hot and sour soup (chicken).Then followed by dinner, we called the Chef for some recommendation. We ordered Rista, Dal Tadka and
Steamed Rice. The chefs are just excellent at this place.
Retired to our room post dinner!!

Kashmir is the northernmost geographical region of the Indian subcontinent. Until the mid-19th century, the term Kashmir denoted only the Kashmir Valley between the Great Himalayas and the Pir Panjal Range. Today, it denotes a larger area that includes the Indian-administered territory of Jammu and Kashmir.
In 1339, Shah Mir became the first Muslim ruler of Kashmir, inaugurating the Salatin-i-Kashmir or Shah Mir dynasty. Kashmir was part of the Mughal Empire from 1586 to 1751, and thereafter, until 1820, of the Afghan Durrani Empire.
That year, the Sikhs, under Ranjit Singh, annexed Kashmir. In 1846, after the Sikh defeat in the First Anglo-Sikh War, and upon the purchase of the region from the British under the Treaty of Amritsar, the Raja of Jammu, Gulab Singh, became the new ruler of Kashmir.

Tourism takes a hit in Kashmir's Gulmarg
Violence between India and Pakistan has always made tourism a tough sell in the disputed region of Kashmir. That situation was exacerbated after a high court ordered hotels in Indian-administered Gulmarg to upgrade their sewage treatment to preserve the area's environment. More than half the hotels had to empty out their guests to comply with the order. Most of the hotels have reopened but the rest will have to wait until spring to build the required sewage treatment units. Al Jazeera's Faiz Jamil reports from Gulmarg.

गुलमर्ग का अर्थ है फूलों की वादी। जम्मू - कश्मीर के बारामूला जिले में लग - भग 2730 मीटर की ऊंचाई पर स्थित गुलमर्ग, की खोज 1927 में अंग्रेजों ने की थी। यह पहले “गौरीमर्ग” के नाम से जाना जाता था, जो भगवान शिव की पत्नी गौरी का नाम है। फिर कश्मीर के अंतिम राजा, राजा युसूफ शाह चक ने इस स्थान की खूबसूरती और शांत वारावरण में मग्न होकर इसका नाम गौरीमर्ग से गुलमर्ग रख दिया। गुलमर्ग के आस पास की जगह निंगली नल्लाह और ऑटर सर्कल वाक, गुलमर्ग के दो प्रमुख आकर्षक स्थल है। अफरात पहाड़ी की पिघलती बर्फ निंगली नल्लाहे में बहती है। आगे यह पहाडों से गुजरते हुए सोपोर में झेलम नदी संग जुड जाता है। खिलनमर्ग में बने पुल से यात्री इस नल्लाहे को देख सकते हैं, जो गुलमर्ग का एक और पर्यटक स्थल है। “ऑटर सर्कल वाक” भी कश्मीर का पर्यटक स्थल है। इस वाक में, सैलानी कश्मीर की वादियों की सैर के साथ साथ 8500 मीटर ऊँची विश्व की चोथी ऊँची पहाडी नंगा पर्वत को देख सकते हैं।
कुछ अन्य पर्यटन स्थल इन के अलावा गुलमर्ग में और भी कई पर्यटक स्थल है। जैसे कि बाबा रेशी की दरगाह, फिशिंग पॉड, बनीबल नग, कौतर नग, और सोनमर्ग। ये सारे यहाँ के पिकनिक और कैम्पिंग स्पॉट है। सोनमर्ग, जिसे सोने का मैदान भी कहा जाता है, यहाँ से आप हिन्दुओं के धार्मिक स्थान अमरनाथ की ओर जा सकते हैं। इनके अलावा श्रीनगर - लेह मार्ग द्वारा लधाक और जोजिला भी जा सकते हैं।
Gulmarg is a town, a hill station, a popular skiing destination and a notified area committee in the Baramulla district of the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir. The town is situated in the Pir Panjal Range in the western Himalayas

Gulmarg Taxi Stand To Gondola Ticket Counter Video - Kashmir Tourism
Gulmarg Tour Tips,Gulmarg Taxi Stand, Gondola Ticket Counter, Gulmarg, Kashmir, India: Your Kashmir tour will be incomplete without visiting Gulmarg. Gulmarg,
considered as the Switzerland of India, is the greatest tourist attraction of Kashmir. Gulmarg has many tourist attractions like Gondola ride, Snow Scooter ride, Sking etc. The Gulmarg Gondola in Jammu and Kashmir is the world's highest operating cable car.This Gondola operates in two phases. First phase takes you to Kongdori and second phase takes you to Afarwat Mountain peak.
To reach Gulmarg, hire a car from Srinagar. The car will drop you at the Gulmarg Taxi Stand. Gondola Ticket Counter is approximately at a distance of 1.5 km from
Gulmarg taxi stand. There is clean metal road from the taxi stand to the Gondola ticket counter. You can easily walk the distance upto gondola ticket counter. The road is almost flat. It is a 10 minutes walking distance. There is also horse or pony available to reach upto the ticket counter. Never forget to bargain with the rates of the pony otherwise the touts will plunder you. Normal rate is around Rs. 1000/- (Rs. one thousand only) per pony / horse but the touts may ask for as much as 5000/= to 8000/= in peak seasons. April - May is the peak season. In October, there is also a heavy rush of tourist. I will recommend to walk the distance and enjoy the lush green meadow in the right side as you walk. This video shows you the metal road from Gulmarg Taxi Stand to Gondola Ticket Counter.
Tips to tourist for riding Gondola at Gulmarg, Kashmir:
To ride the Gulmarg Gondola first buy your ticket from the ticket counter then collect your Boarding Pass and then ride the Gondola.
The rates of tickets as of May 2014 are Rs. 600 (rupees six hundred only) per person for first phase and Rs. 800 (rupees eight hundred only) per person for the second phase. You may book advance tickets for Gondola online from the following URL or you may ask your Hotel manager to book the tickets online for you in advance. Talk to the hotel manager regarding their charges. They may charge you upto Rs 150 (rupees one hundred and fifty only)/= per person as their charge.
After you arrive at Gulmarg for riding gondola first stand in the queue for buying tickets at the Gondola Ticket Counter. During the peak season the queue may be long - very long. So my advice is try to reach at the ticket counter as early as possible. Ticket counter opens 8 o'clock in the morning. If you stay at a hotel in Srinagar which is at distance of 65 km from Gulmarg it will take approximately 2 hour to 2 and half hour to reach Gulmarg from your hotel. So plan your starting time accordingly. Also the weather in the first half of the day remains good and weather becomes cloudy in the afternoon and sometimes rains. Even the second phase of the Gondola service may be suspended if weather becomes too bad. So reaching Gulmarg early will possibly ensure a fine weather during your stay at Gulmarg.
After buying your ticket then stand in the queue for collecting Boarding Pass. If you book your ticket online then do not go to the ticket counter but straight stand in the queue for collecting boarding pass. For each ticket you will get one boarding pass i.e. if you a group of say four then 4 separate boarding passes will be issued to you.
After receiving your boarding pass stand in the queue for riding the cable car Gondola.
The two most famous tourist attractions of Gulmarg are Kongdori at an altitude of nearly 10,000 feet or 3050 metre and mount Afarwat approximately at an altitude of 13500 feet or 4200 meter. Both Kongdori and Afarwat can be reached by cable car Gondola.The Gulmarg Gondola in Jammu and Kashmir is the world's highest operating cable car.This Gondola operates in two phases. First phase takes you to Kongdori and second phase takes you to Afarwat Mountain peak. Gulmarg, Kashmir also has world's highest and longest skiing slope from Afarwat to Kongdori. Gulmarg is the most important tourist destination of Sriinagar, Kashmir. The Gondola ride at Gulmarg itself is a memory for the life.
Gulmarg Sightseeing | Kashmir Houseboat Tour | Dal Lake | Srinagar to Gulmarg | Gondola Ride Gulmarg
Kashmir Day 3 of 3: Two Roving Hearts, and 3 other of our closest friends, chose Kashmir as our dream long-weekend destination for this year’s annual getaway. On day 3 of our Kashmir trip, we take you through our houseboat for a little tour and visit the spectacular Gulmarg Phase 1 and Phase 2. The Gulmarg Gondola is an experience!
Highly recommended for an overnight stay and even for a day trip from Srinagar. Gulmarg Hotels are the way to go if you're looking to wake up to green pastures and blue skies (in September). Although we haven't personally stayed at any of these places, Khyber Hotel, Gulmarg Resort, Hotel Hilltop Gulmarg, and Alpine Ridge Gulmarg are considered some of the best hotels in Gulmarg.
Our trip from Srinagar to Gulmarg Kashmir was in early September (Gulmarg weather was so pleasant … not bitterly cold in the slightest). In our opinion, this is the best time to visit Gulmarg if snowfall is not important to you. When planning to visit Kashmir don’t hesitate … YOLO!
Srinagar to Gulmarg distance: Approx. 50 kms by car
Things to do in Gulmarg :
During the winter months, skiing is something you can look forward to. In non-snowfall months, you can have a nice picnic on the meadows near the taxi stand, go for a horse ride, walk around, or visit the famous temple depicted in the popular vintage Bollywood song 'Jai Jai Shivashankar'.
