About Rafting at Lidder River in Pahalgam

A frothy, twisty glacial river that spans more than 70 kms in its journey across Kashmir, the Lidder is like the backbone of Srinagar. The Lidder river rages for a few kms, before dwindling and finally submerging with the Jhelum. River rafting on the Lidder river is an adventurous activity that has gained a lot of popularity in the past few years. The best time to go white water rafting on the Lidder River Pahalgam is from April to August when the water flow is high but not dangerously so. The water does remain almost freezing during this time of the year as well, but with the sun out it becomes a soothing component.

Lidder river rafting is organized by adventure companies and agencies, on the upper regions of the river where the water is at full force, creating delightful eddies and rapids that are a major thrill. There are only a handful of such agencies, so tourists need to make sure that all bookings are done before arriving at the location, especially during the high tourist season.

As far as Lidder river rafting Pahalgam is concerned, there are several options available to cater to novices as well as experts. One can choose from such options as the smaller 2.5 km option for beginners, or the 5 km long ride and the 8 km extra long ride for experts and professionals.

While white water rafting on river Lidder Pahalgam, adventure enthusiasts would come across grade II to grade IV rapids. But that is not something to be worried about. For every rafting trip on the Pahalgam Lidder River rafting activity, expert guides accompany the thrill-seekers steering the raft, giving directions and coming to the rescue if anything untoward happens. If tourists are unsure about which route to take as per their personal convenience, a simple dialog with the guide can ensure they don’t end up on the strenuous routes.

Adventure enthusiasts can hire all required equipment, such as helmets, life vests and personal waterproof pouches from the agency organizing the trip. Some companies also offer these items as freebies, on booking a rafting trip with them.

With the gorge opening up for miles, showcasing rolling hills that twist and turn every few meters, Lidder river rafting is an activity that is not just meant for gaining an adrenaline rush but also for taking in the beautiful views that surround the riverside.

    Abbas's 7 days trip to Pahalgam

    Upon booking we immediately asked whether we should try ourselves for getting Gondola tickets. We were told no need and the agency would take care. Near to our travel date, and after the bookings are closed we are informed to try on our own leading to no Gondola tickets. Poor advise in terms of what
    we can achieve or not on a trip. We had to use our own judgment and with the help of driver amend the plans as required. The agency vouchers were issued that were different to that issued by Travel Triangle. When questioned why there is no mention of Doodhpatri, it was just plugged in for the last day when we were to return from Pahalgam to Srinagar. The driver advised it would not be possible to do justice as we have to do Shikara ride also and left off Shalimar Garden. We amended and went to Doodhpathri on the day we cancelled Gulmarg plans due to no Gondola tickets. . Overall we feel shortchanged as we could not go to Gulmarg while we paid for that part of the trip. The driver saved us from lack of proper planning and advice from the agency.

    Yogesh's 7 days trip to Pahalgam

    There was some communication issue from agent and hence we had to wait in the snow for 10-15 mins. Also, the updated hotel name was not shared in the itenary or mail, hence we landed at wrong hotel and again had to get the luggage offloaded and go the right hotel.

    1. You should ask for Vehicle choice 2. You should pre inform or book gondola tickets or atleast share proper information on when it needs to be booked so like us nobody else miss the chance of visiting Gulmarg.

    Ankit's 5 days trip to Pahalgam

    The hotel which was booked for 1st day was not good. Basic amenities like handwash, room freshner etc. were missing. Location of the hotel was also not that good. Other than this, stay was comfortable. Cab was good. The driver was punctual but impatient. He didn't care about lane driving. He was alw
    ays in a hurry as he had a flight to catch. Coming to sightseeing, local sightseeing of Srinagar could be better. On the last day, driver mentioned some important places which could be visited. On the last day, our check-out time from houseboat was 12 noon. But the driver as well as travel agent insisted that we have to check-out at 11 am at amx and we will be dropped to airport. I had booked my flight in the evening so that I could spend some more time and visit some more places (ofcourse at my own cost). I asked them if they could drop me to the airport in the afternoon but they denied and informed that it will be charged. These things can be improved or may clearly be mentioned at the time of booking.
