1. Marchoi Trek.
Duration: 4 days.
Trek Gradient: Moderate.
Without a doubt, the Marchoi Trek is one of the Indian Himalayas’ most stunning winter hikes. This amazing journey begins at Naranag, 45 kilometres to the northeast of Srinagar City. The hamlet is well known for being the end point of the Kashmir Great Lakes Trek and for producing a winter paradise. The Machoi Mountain, whose pinnacles rise above 5000 m, serves as the inspiration for the name of the Marchoi Trek. This winter hike’s highest point is at the apex of a meadow locally known as Shadimarg (3200 m). The walk is a winding wonderland, thanks to the stunning vista of Mt. Harmukh’s (5142 m) northern face and surrounding valleys.
2. Lidderwat Aru, WInter Trek.
Duration: 4 days.
Trek Gradient: Moderate.
A winter trek in Kashmir is the best way to witness the miracles, since everything in the region of heaven appears magnificent during the winter. Through the summer, Mountain Expeditions, the Tarsar Marsar Lakes Trek, and other well-known treks keep this trail busy. The initial section of the walk passes through the Aru Village’s gently rolling slopes covered in snow before entering Lidder Valley. The adventure is made exciting by the snow-covered pine forests, Aru Village, half frozen Lidder River, and the blue sky. There is practically little elevation gain across the 9 km overall course of the hike.
