The aim of Kashmir Mega Trek expedition is to trek from Sonamag to Bandipora via Nichnai Pass and Zajibal Pass. The Mega-Trek treks through over 50 high altitude alpine lakes situated at the foothills of different snowy mountain peaks. It crosses streams, plenty of colorful meadows and crosses four mountain passes.
Though trekking in Kashmir is not newest but still this expedition is no walk in the park. Arduous days, steep and rocky passes and altitudes approaching 4200m all collide to create a challenging trek in one of the most beautiful and serene Himalayas of Kashmir.International or domestic flights Visa.
