This itinerary pairs Kashmir’s classic highlights (Dal Lake, Mughal gardens, Gulmarg/Sonmarg day trips if desired) with a rare deep-dive into Gurez — a remote valley along the Kishanganga River, dotted with wooden hamlets, high meadows and Habba Khatoon lore. Expect dramatic passes, Wular Lake views, and warm village hospitality — travel that feels like discovery. 🕊️

Why: Gurez is cultural immersion — talk to shepherds, see traditional willow/wood architecture and listen to oral history.
Overnight: Dawar (Gurez).
After breakfast: Drive back via Razdan Pass; stop again for Wular viewpoints and scenic photos.
Afternoon: Arrive Srinagar; check into hotel/houseboat and unwind.
Evening: Optional relaxed stroll, last-minute shopping, or a gentle shikara if you wish.
Why: Return day eases you back into valley rhythm and prepares for departure.
Overnight: Srinagar.
