How to Reach Apharwat Peak in Gulmarg

The gondola rides are divided into two phases. You need to take board one of the yellow gondola cubicles to get transported from the base to phase 1. Once you are done with that, you can proceed to board the red gondola cubicle to get carried straight to the Apharwat peak.

Once up top, the snow covered summit of Apharwat peak will welcome you with its icy chilly wind. Be sure to dress warm and appropriately to stay cozy. Their might also be some oxygen scarcity, so be cautious to breathe easy.

After you get down from the phase 2 gondolas, there are human sledges to take you for a ride if you wish to go higher up. Once you descend the sledges, here is where the skiing activity starts. Beyond this point, the guides discourage you to proceed since the military area begins and permission is not granted.

If you are too lazy to walk from the car park to the gondola stations, you can hire a pony to transport you till there. The transportation from the very base to the peak of Apharwat is well managed and you will not have to stress over it. Just enjoy the scenery and take-in the beauty of nature as much as you can, when there. The gondola rides gives you magnificent view, especially during winters when all you can see is white. The gondola rides are a joy ride in itself since the cable cars go slow and high up in the sky to transport you from one point to another smoothly and swiftly. Since the cable cars move slowly, you also get to capture all the moments on your camera with ease.

Hemant's 6 days trip to Gulmarg

A Perfectly Planned Kashmir Trip with Exceptional Service! We recently traveled from Indore to Kashmir with our family and booked our tour package through Paradise Port Tour and Travels. It was truly a wonderful experience! Right from the start, the team was extremely professional and helpful. The lady who handled our booking was always in touch before and during the trip, ensuring everything was well-arranged. She even took care of booking all the rides in Kashmir and kept us informed about every place we visited. A special gesture that touched our hearts was when she surprised us with a birthday cake for our son during the trip—such a thoughtful act! A big shoutout to Iqbal Bhai, our cab driver, who made our journey even more special. He was always on time, drove safely, and guided us through all the must-visit places in Kashmir. His warm and kind nature made us feel comfortable throughout the trip. Thanks to Paradise Port Tour and Travels for making our Kashmir trip so memorable! Highly recommended for anyone planning a hassle-free Kashmir vacation.

Rakesh's 7 days trip to Gulmarg

Co-ordination from Ashima is good. Hotel Zaryab in Srinagar and Divine In n in Sonamarg is good. Hotel River Walk resort in Pahalgam is not good and Akbar house board is poorly managed. Taxi driver not provided any support in negotiating and talking to union agents. Virtually no support from travel triangle

Mr's 6 days trip to Gulmarg

The hotels were 3 star and charging 7k per night in Gulmarg was not good. Had to carry bags due to road blocked by snow, cigarate buds in bed, no TV working, heater was small and making noise. The hotel near lal chowk was too missing TV and no care for customer, no cleaning.

Pal's 5 days trip to Gulmarg

We had an amazing time in Kashmir with Drip in Kashmir! Our trip last week was nothing short of magical! Ms. Azmat deserves special praise for crafting a meticulously planned itinerary, covering every aspect - from comfortable hotels to reliable cab services and carefully curated places to visit. Her attention to detail made all the difference! Our cab driver, Mr. Irfan, was an excellent guide throughout the trip, ensuring we made the most of our time in Kashmir. The warm gesture by Mr. Yasir, presenting us with beautiful Kashmiri shawls on our houseboat stay, left a lasting impression. Overall, our experience with Drip in Kashmir was phenomenal! Your team's dedication to delivering exceptional service has left us with unforgettable memories. Thank you for making our Kashmir trip truly special!!!
