From trekking, river rafting, shikara ride to snowboarding, the place opens its exciting doors for adventure lovers all across the world.

Here’s taking a quick virtual tour of some of the offbeat places in Kashmir that will evoke wanderlust in you.
Gurez
Located 123 kilometres away from Srinagar, Gurez is sure to give you an authentic Kashmiri experience with its picturesque green landscape.

Gurez has been opened for tourists but its recognition in the mainstream traveling sector is still untouched a tad bit.
Doodhpathri
Doodhpathri, also known as the Valley of Milk, stands true to its name with the scenic view of its snow-kissed terrain. With the river Shalinganga accentuating its beauty, the place looks milky in appearance when viewed from a distance. The hill station has everything to offer that one needs to relax in the lap of nature.
Daksum
With green lush, Daksum is another natural scenic spot that is not known to the world at large yet. Located in Anantnag, Daksum is one of the apt trekking destinations in Kashmir that will make your heart skip a beat with its magical meadows and immaculate forests.
Aharbal Waterfall
This place is also known as the Niagara waterfall of Kashmir. Cover with pine trees within the Pir Panjal mountains, Aharbal waterfall lies in the Kulgam district.
Aru Valley
Covered with mountains and pine trees all around, Aru Valley is a majestic place that one must include in their tour. The quintessential place is just a short drive away from Pahalgam while the Lidder river makes it more alluring.
