gurez valley tour package: Trip Overview

Gurez is Kashmir before tourism: a remote valley of wooden villages and pine forest beside the Kishanganga river, reached over the 3,300 m Razdan Pass.

This short Gurez Valley tour gives you two nights in the valley, with time for Dawar, the pyramid-shaped Habba Khatoon peak and walks through Dard-Shin villages, plus a sightseeing day in Srinagar.

It's a good fit for adventure, nature, solo, friends/group travellers and includes comfortable stays, daily breakfast and dinner, and a private cab with an experienced local driver throughout. Want to know more about where you're going? Read our Srinagar travel guide.
