Kashmir Great Lakes Trek Best Time
August 17, 2022 ⚊ 1 Min read ⚊ Views 119 ⚊ BLOG
The Great Lakes Trek is about a week-long trek with five days of ascent and a day’s descent. The journey uphill itself is not marked by a continuous ascent but alternating ascents and descents through three splendidly high-altitude passes, namely the Nichnai (4115 meters), Gadsar (4206 meters), and Zaj (4140 meters) Pass. The Kashmir Great Lakes Trek price is not exorbitant- such a singularly beautiful trek experience can be arranged within USD 161 to 175 (INR 12,000 to 13,000) per person, and even lesser if you make all arrangements by yourself.
The unique characteristic of the Great Lakes trek is its diverse features. Most trek routes are lined with lush-green meadows that are dotted with vivid wildflowers throughout. However, the meadows are bounded on all sides by majestic mountain ranges, the snow from whose peaks run down in glaciers and collect in the resplendent lakes you find along the route.
