Best Time to Visit

For skiing and snow activities, the best time is from late December to mid-March when Gulmarg is covered in a thick blanket of snow. For lush green meadows and pleasant weather ideal for trekking and golf, visit between May and September. The autumn months of October and November offer crisp air, clear mountain views, and beautiful fall colors with fewer visitors. Avoid the monsoon months of July and August if you plan extensive outdoor activities.
Peak Crowd: December to February for the ski season, and May to June for summer holidays.
Moderate Crowd: March, April, September, and October, which are considered shoulder seasons.
Low Crowd: July to August during the monsoon, and early November before the heavy snowfall.
