Day2

Sonamarg Sunrise & Thajiwas Glacier Excursion

Pre-dawn departure to Sonamarg for the signature daybreak experience. Enjoy a scenic drive (~2–3 hours) along the Sindh River, arriving in time for sunrise. From the Sonamarg parking point, transfer on foot or by optional local pony/jeep to Thajiwas Glacier for an easy to moderate guided walk, glacier viewpoints, and snow-play depending on season.

Post-glacier, return to Sonamarg for riverside views, photography, and a relaxed lunch. Evening check-in at your Sonamarg lodge with time to enjoy alpine air and peaceful valley sounds.

Important: Wear layered clothing and sturdy shoes. Pony/jeep rides are available at extra cost and subject to availability.
