Kashmir weather changes fast. Here is the packing list our guests thank us for every single season.
Kashmir is beautiful in every season, but the temperature can swing sharply between morning and evening even in summer. After sending hundreds of families to the valley, here is the list we now share with every guest.
Clothing
Carry layers rather than one heavy jacket. A thermal inner, a fleece and a windproof outer will handle almost every situation. Woollen socks matter more than most people expect, especially for the Gulmarg and Sonmarg days.
Footwear
One pair of waterproof shoes with grip is essential. Slippery snow patches near Thajiwas glacier catch people off guard every year.
Health & Documents
Sunscreen is not optional ÔÇö the reflection off snow burns quickly. Carry your regular medicines, a basic first aid pouch and a photo identity proof for every traveller including children.
Money
Card acceptance has improved but many small vendors, pony operators and shikara walas still prefer cash. Keep some small notes handy.
