About Sonamarg

Sonamarg, meaning "Meadow of Gold," is a spectacular hill station in Ganderbal district at 2,800 meters. The town gets its name from the golden flowers that bloom in meadows during summer. Situated on the Srinagar-Leh highway, it serves as the gateway to Ladakh and is surrounded by majestic glaciers and snow-capped peaks.

Famous for the Thajiwas Glacier, pristine alpine lakes, and adventure activities, Sonamarg is a paradise for nature lovers and adventure enthusiasts. The area offers excellent trekking opportunities, including the famous Kashmir Great Lakes trek, and provides a base for Amarnath pilgrims.
