Sonamarg
Sonamarg (Meadow of gold) is a trekker's heaven and has adventurous routes with
beatiful green water and frozen lakes around. The vale is believed to be bestowed
with mystical water which turns everything into enternal riches. High altitude makes
it cold even during summers. It is advisable to always carry warm clothes and rain
proofs.

sledge ride on the snow even in mid Summer. Ponies are available up to the glacier
from Sonamarg. Superb campsites in Thajiwas area makes it a prime location for school
camps and trekkers during the Summer. Sind River is a natural hatchery of Trout,
where angling is great fun provied the permission is obtained from the fisheries
department. Ascending river makes Sonamarg ideal for River Rafting, which is done
in full swing by youths, corporate executives and even old members with their familes

adventure sports like Paragliding is getting lots of takers during the Summer. Assistance
