Itinerary
Arrival — Transfer to Pahalgam & Riverside Leisure

If arrival is early, optional short stroll to the local market for crafts and shawls.
Trout Fishing Experience & Riverside Picnic
After breakfast, enjoy a guided trout fishing session on the Lidder River with local experts. Fishing gear and basic permits are provided (see inclusions). Post-lunch, have a relaxed picnic on the riverbank with views of pine-clad slopes. Evening free for leisure — optional short horse ride to nearby scenic points.
Day Excursion to Betaab Valley & Baisaran (Mini Switzerland)
Head out after breakfast to Betaab Valley for a family-friendly picnic amid vivid meadows and towering deodar trees. Continue to Baisaran, a lush meadow often called Mini Switzerland, reachable by pony ride or a short trek. Return to Pahalgam for an evening cultural program or a relaxed bonfire (seasonal). Wear comfortable shoes for meadow walks.
Aru Valley & Chandanwari — Scenic Landscapes & Picnics
Drive to Aru Valley—a quieter, less-crowded valley perfect for family picnics, easy nature trails, and photography.
