Sonmarg

Sonmarg means the “Meadow of Gold”, and it truly looks golden when the sun shines on its green fields. It is surrounded by majestic snow-covered mountains and shiny glaciers that make the place look like a scene from a fantasy movie.

One of the most famous spots here is the Thajiwas Glacier. Tourists can go on treks and pony rides to reach the glacier, where snow stays even in summer. The rivers that flow from melting ice look clear and beautiful, adding charm to the landscape.

During spring and summer, the valleys are filled with flowers and green grass, making Sonmarg a favorite place for photographers and nature lovers. In winter, it becomes a snowy destination perfect for skiing and snow activities.

Sonmarg is also an important route for travelers on their way to Ladakh, which makes it a popular stopover. But even if you are not traveling ahead, Sonmarg itself offers enough natural beauty to spend a peaceful holiday.

If someone enjoys wide landscapes, quiet nature, and thrilling mountain views, Sonmarg is a perfect destination.
