About

Doodhpathri, a captivating hill station located about 45 km from Srinagar, is nestled in the Budgam district of Kashmir. This hidden gem, surrounded by the majestic Pir Panjal mountain range, is characterized by its expansive, undulating meadows, offering a peaceful retreat from the bustling city life.

The journey to Doodhpathri is as mesmerizing as the destination itself, with routes winding through lush grasslands and dense pine forests, presenting a visual feast to travelers. Recognized for its untouched beauty, Doodhpathri stands out as a prime highlight in offbeat travel itineraries for Kashmir, curated by Johansen Travels.

At an elevation of 2730 meters, the valley’s bowl-like shape and the crystal-clear river that meanders through, which looks milky white and lends the area its name ‘Doodhpathri’ or ‘Valley of Milk,’ add to its enchanting allure.

Visitors to Doodhpathri can indulge in various activities, with pony riding and ATV adventures being the most popular. Pony rides offer a unique way to explore the depth of the meadows and forests, ranging from short jaunts to longer excursions. Meanwhile, ATV rides provide an adrenaline-pumping journey through the area’s stunning landscapes, including dense forests and along the sparkling river streams, making for an unforgettable adventure.

Things to Do in Doodhpathri

While Doodhpathri’s serene meadows are ideal for peaceful relaxation, there are also options for more active enjoyment. If you’re seeking some extra excitement, here are a few suggested activities at Doodhpathri.

Pony Ride: For an optimal experience in Doodhpathri, it is recommended to hire a pony. The trek itself covers a vast area with various points of interest, which can be easily overlooked by someone unfamiliar with the terrain. By opting for a pony ride, a knowledgeable rider will guide you to all the notable sights and ensure that nothing is missed.

While Doodhpathri may not be a popular camping spot, it does offer a unique opportunity for camp enthusiasts to set up their own camps, as there are limited accommodations available in the area. Keep in mind that there are no existing facilities at Doodhpathri, meaning visitors will need to bring their own tents for their stay.

For trekking enthusiasts, the Doodhpathri trail offers a pleasant and alluring experience. The landscape showcases lush forests and open grasslands, perfect for exploring on foot. It’s advisable to have a guide accompany you as getting lost in the woods or stumbling upon wild animals is a possibility.

With its picturesque landscapes, misty glow, April snowfall, flowing Shaliganga river, cascading waterfalls, and enchanting surroundings, Doodhpathri is the perfect destination for photographers to capture breathtaking shots. It’s no wonder this spot is tailor-made for photography.

Best Time to Visit
