Best Time To Visit Gulmarg

Plan your trip during best season to experience the best of this stunning destination

The best time to visit Gulmarg is during the summer season, between March and June, when the temperature is moderate and appropriate for sightseeing. During this period, one can enjoy the temperature, remaining pleasant with neither scorching heat nor shivering cold, making it apt to explore it at its best. However, if you wish to witness a snow-capped landscape, you can also plan to visit during winter. The true Gulmarg, popularly known as the Meadow of Flowers, can be seen during summer. During the summer, the temperature ranges between 13°C to 29°C. This is the peak season in Gulmarg for people who want to see the beauty of the landscape covered by picturesque flowers. December to February is the best time to visit Gulmarg for snowfall. Moreover, the scenic valley is covered in flowers of all colours, making it all the more beautiful and charming. The valley looks stunning with flowers of vibrant colours, which would be eye candy for nature lovers and others alike. The weather and overall environment of Gulmarg during summer are favourable for all age groups (and even for those with breathing issues). It is also an ideal time for engaging in sightseeing and adventure activities.

The summer season in Gulmarg starts in April and lasts until June. This is the best time to visit Gulmarg, as this season's climate is pleasant. The colours of nature are out in full bloom during summer, making the place a feast for the eyes and the soul. However, most parts of the country are still quite pleasant and calm. The lakes, parks, and gardens are a sight to behold, with colours visible on every corner. The much-hyped and not-to-be-missed Shikara ride can also be enjoyed thoroughly during this season. Offering one of the hottest weathers to Gulmarg, the summer season arrives at the beginning of March. With a pleasant climate, this period is ideal for sightseeing. This is also the perfect time to witness the blooming of exquisite flowers. Overall, summer is the best time to visit Gulmarg with family and friends.

Monsoon Season in Gulmarg

The monsoon season is not the best time to visit Gulmarg as it is an off-season. The frequent bouts of rain make the climate quite chilly, and it even affects tourism as most attractions and adventure activities are shut. Hence, this isn’t the best season to visit Gulmarg. Receiving minimal to insignificant showers, Gulmarg does not offer as awe-inspiring views as during other durations of the year. This period constitutes the monsoon season in Gulmarg. Though tourists avoid visiting here during these months, one can make budget travel. However, shining lakes and waterfalls make for a beautiful sight during this time.

Winter Season in Gulmarg

Skiing, snowboarding, playing with snowballs and creating a snowman are just some fun activities one can engage in during this season in Gulmarg. The winter season experiences heavy snowfall, covering the whole region in pristine white snow. Hence, one can opt for an excursion to the valley of Gulmarg during December to enjoy snowfall, enchanting views, and adventure sports for a wonderful experience. If you are looking for the best time to visit Gulmarg for your honeymoon, consider winter as the best season.

    Vinay Kashyap

    Bengaluru

    Vinay's 4 days trip to Gulmarg

    My experience before completing the booking and after was completely different. I ditched the other travel agent whom i had almost finalised on travel triangle and choose Breezy travels (for the review that they claimed to have). But, the responsiveness before completing the booking was not there
    later on, especially when I wanted them during the course of trip. As a traveller, I expect my travel agent to stay in touch and take feedback atleast once at the end of day. But, there was nothing from Breezy travel and infact, even till date, She has not made any attempt to check how my trip went. Thats because, She know what my response would be. Major concerns- 1. From the beginning I made it very clear that the booking is done with a condition for visiting Teetwal, which is close to LOC, which required permit. Travel agent assured me that she has spoken to concerned officials and took all our IDs. But, nothing she did. After arriving at Srinagar she told (upon checking multiple times) that the driver will handle everything. Our visit to Teetwal was not at all certain even on the day of our visit. The driver just took us to DC office which was closed because of weekend! Upon telling this she asked us to go to Kralpora police station and told driver is all aware and he will handle it. When we reached Kralpora police station the driver happily left me handle all of this and sat with his mobile phone. What a joke! I had to use my own contacts and eventually got the permit. Wasted over 1 hour due to this mishap. 2. Due to space constraint we upgraded to TT from Crysta from Day 2 and that was the mistake. The vehicle was not in condition (driver clearly mentioned this when he took the TT for getting minor maintenance done. Greasing was done and told this vehicle was idle for a long time). Really ? You took additional Rs. 8500 for this junk vehicle with which we need to travel 160+ kms one way in rough terrain?! As expected, the vehicle broke down after couple of hours and we lost almost 1 and a half hour. We ended up reaching Teetwal late, ruining our plans. 3. There was an unwanted de-tour while returning from Kupwara and instead of taking a straight route, the driver took some interior route, touched Baramulla and arrived at Srinagar. This not only delayed our arrival by 1 hour 30 mins, but also put us in a tense situation. This was completely uncalled for citing there is some religious procession when the road was shit empty. You cannot make your guest have an uncertain time. 4. The driver showed a very casual attitude throughout the trip and never paid attention to our request. AC wasnt turned on when the weather was damn hot in Srinagar (despite agreeing to pay the charges). To Breezy travels- your driver had a dedicated fan on top of him and he made us sit in hot weather. Yeah, you say no one in Kashmir use AC. But we do!. Furthermore, we ended up missing visiting few places due to his careless and lethargic behaviour. We made a mistake by being very nice to him, taking care of his stay in Teetwal and food during entire trip since he was diabetic. We get this for the care we showed. Driver should be treated as a driver!. 5. There was no clear communication on Shikara ride and when we went to the Ghat, we did not get what the lady told. Since we just wanted to be done with it, we completed the ride which was completely waste of time as they make us visit their shop for purchase even on dal lake!. Let the people enjoy their vacation! 6. While dropping us back to the airport the driver asked for AC charges and i outright rejected and Breezy travels were immediately involved. To my surprise, their statement was 'You have to pay AC even if it's used for sometime'. Madam, as communicated on call, I pay for what I get. If i ask the driver to turn on the AC, he should. If I ask him to turn it off, he should. Only then I am obligated for payment. Its not like the driver switches on and off as he please and ask me to pay for all days. It was very evident that the AC was not working properly, the temperature was not set lower than 26 degrees and we traveller's were taken for granted! The driver still took 1200 in the form of tips and AC charges. We just wanted to be done with him and paid and left. Few pros- 1. Hotel Kareem residency stay was good only for 3rd night stay since I spoke to the hotelier and got my rooms changed. Requested change of hotel to travel agent on 1st day and no outcome so took this on my own hands and spoke to hotel for change of rooms for my return stay. 2. Food in Kareem residency was very good. I understand they are running on 50% offer so all the travel agents have flocked this hotel and that is good for traveller's. 3. Driver and car given for 1st day was so good. We missed the driver (Mr. Riyaz) on remaining days and will directly get in touch with him when I visit next time. A note to travel agent. 1. Please ensure you speak to travellers during the trip. Booking the hotel and cab is not the end of your duty. 2. Even to this date; 15th July 2025 travel agent has not made any efforts to seek a feedback on the trip. I wanted for a week and then submitting this to travel triangle to seek a fair audit on service standards. 3. You are obligated to take all payments through travel triangle. Please dont insist for direct payment citing avoidance of convenience fee as travellers know what they incur.

    Vaibhav Kaushik

    New delhi

    Vaibhav's 6 days trip to Gulmarg

    So I booked a HoneyMoon Package to Kashmir with TravelTriangle and got an amazing deal with there travel agents GallopTravels with Miss. khusboo and Ms. Kritika From TravelTriangle. They both are super professional when it comes to performing there respective duties. The Cab driver provided was comp
    letely suitable for what I requested for the driver to be very helpful, generous Mr. Mehraj. The Only minor issue which i faced was the last day stay in HouseBoat. The decoration and HoneyMoon Cake was to be provided on the Housboat with Candle Night dinner but the Caretake failed to put on efforts with the decorations and failed to arrange the Cake or any alternative. Raised the issue with Ms. Khusbhoo from Gallop. She on her end looked into the matter but the decoration which was only 4 balloons which were hanging defalted before our arrival on Boat. one more issue which I raised with Ms. khusboo was the behaviour of the caretaker who looked on staring my wife when she wore a below Knee dress for our complimentary shikara ride which she was feeling uncomfortable because of this guy's behaviour had to change to jeans and top. And during our candle night dinner I requested this guy to not to come during the dinner If i need something i will call you but only after 10 minuted of our candle night dinner moment i again entered unexpectedly opening all the Lights spoiling our candle night dinner. If i somehow ignore this last day's stay everything was perfect. This last day is not the fault of Travel Triangle or Gallop Travels i dont blame them for the same but i blame that houseboat caretaker with such cheap/narrow mentality. Rest assured Travel Triangle is one option for me for my future journeys. Regards.

    Amit's 5 days trip to Gulmarg

    Overall the trip to Kashmir is nice and a must visit place for the travelers once in a lifetime. The place is really a heaven but need certain points of improvements regarding uncertainty/ unforeseen events, safety & security, overprice/overbudget places & over tip culture everywhere despite o
    f best services. Trip was organized fine by 'Travelancer kashmir' company via agent Iqra madam initially and then Ishrat madam, however there are some issues wrt itinerary provided by the company regarding compliances/ follow up of hotels ratings and their hospitality/ services which needs to be taken seriously further in future for other Travelers.
