The feeling of Sonamarg

Sonamarg lies in the upper Sindh Valley of Ganderbal district, surrounded by steep mountains, alpine meadows and snowfields. The settlement is an important base for excursions toward Thajiwas Glacier and for trekking routes leading to high-altitude lakes. Its river, meadows and seasonal access give Sonamarg a distinctly high-Himalayan character.
