Overview


Kashmir, with its beauty, has been mesmerizing travelers for ages. The backpackers who are just starting their traveling journey often magnify their list by adding the Kashmir backpacking trip to it. Beyond any doubt, the majestic view of Kashmir induces wanderers; however, the everlasting experience during the Christmas and New Year season adds even more magic to it. This paradise can be adored in abundant ways and has been celebrated in the form of couplets and songs, but a trip to Kashmir is the only way to explore this paradise and make it memorable. The Kashmir backpacking trip is an astonishing experience—not only does it allow you to see the beauty of nature, but it also helps you experience true peace and tranquility. This trip is meant to bestow you with this everlasting experience itself, especially during the joyful Christmas festivities. Discover the wonder of Kashmir with our all-inclusive Kashmir tour starting from Srinagar. This Kashmir backpacking trip itinerary begins at a rendezvous point in Srinagar, where you’ll meet the trip captain. You will be given a brief introduction before commencing the perfect journey to the exquisite Kashmir. After checking in to your designated houseboat, you’ll be able to experience the Shikara ride in the pristine Dal Lake. It is a serene location that gives a whole new floating experience, and it’s no wonder it's called a “Jewel in Kashmir’s crown.” After enjoying the magnificent sunset, you’ll have a lovely overnight stay on the boats, creating memories perfect for the New Year celebrations.


That’s when we’ll head to our Kashmir backpacking trip’s second destination, Gulmarg, following the Drung Waterfall. Gulmarg, the most popular hill station in Kashmir, has snow-covered meadows and skiing slopes that will catch your eye, making it a winter wonderland ideal for Christmas and New Year festivities. This astonishing place in the Baramulla district of Jammu and Kashmir is often recognized as the "heartland of winter sports in India." If you’re into snow activities or want to experience one, then this small valley will be the ideal place for you to spend your time. You can indulge in the Gulmarg Gondola Ride and enjoy the aerial views of the valley. After that, we’ll head towards the world’s highest green golf course to experience the best of our time and perhaps a New Year toast amidst stunning views.


On the next day, you will experience the thrill of visiting one of the most captivating places, Pahalgam, which is next on our Kashmir trip itinerary. Pahalgam is Kashmir’s beautiful hill station known for its sightseeing and astonishing meadows. It is considered a mystical or extremely spiritual place because of the presence of the holy Amarnath Yatra pilgrimage. After taking some rest at our checked-in hotels in Pahalgam, we’ll visit two prominent valleys named Aru Valley and Betaab Valley to spend some time with ourselves, perhaps reflecting on the joys of Christmas and hopes for the New Year. As we move towards Chandanwadi, you will have the opportunity to do many snow activities like skiing and snowboarding. With this, we’ll conclude our sightseeing and get back to our hotels for rest. The real gem of this Kashmir tour will come into the picture when we reach our next destination, Sonmarg. It is the hidden gem that embraces the beauty of Kashmir and gives tourists a whole new breathtaking experience with its green pastures and water bodies. After enjoying a peaceful time at Yousmarg Valley, we will return to our hotels. The next morning will be the departure day of our Kashmir tour, where everyone will be heading back as scheduled, perhaps reminiscing about the Christmas and New Year memories created.

You will not only be taking back your backpacks but also numerous memories that you would love to relive again, enriched by the spirit of Christmas and the hope of the New Year.


Join us for Christmas and New Year Celebrations, featuring 2+2 Snacks, Music, Cake, and a Bonfire (weather dependent) to add even more joy to your trip!

Anurag Gupta

A trip of a lifetime❤️!! This was my first group trip and road trip to Spiti valley which was excellent. All strangers become close friends by the end of the trip and all of us feel like going on another trip with the same group. The stay was very comfortable and clean, beautiful peaceful locations with perfect mountains and sunrise view. All the sight seeing and activities like trekking, hiking were really good. Special thanks to Captain Divya❤️. She gave her best efforts in the entire journey to make it more enjoyable and memorable. We really had a good time with you. Such a kind and humble captain we had with Great responsibility. The best captain I can say. Overall I would say I would come again on another trip with Justwravel. Thankyou to the entire team specially Divya and Nishant. Thanks for lots of good memories @justwravel.

I recently went to Winter Spiti Valley trip with JustWravel which ended up being more as a trip with best friends. JustWravel had everything sorted for us be it transportation, safety, constant checkups, personalised care , accommodation, food and everything was super comfortable and amazing. Then it comes to the best part of this trip our trip captains - Abhishek and Ramneek He treated us like their own brother from day one and made sure all of us are having the time of our lives. They had constant checkups to ensure all of us are doing great physically. They had good knowledge about the place and shared the same with us as well. I would surely plan my next trip with JustWravel. I would like to mention an instance: I forgot my bag in the Volvo bus and there was nothing important in that bag but our captains still went out of their way to ensure that I got my bag safely.

Thank you JustWravel for giving me one of my best �first group-trip� experience - All-Girls Spiti Valley trip! I was a bit nervous before the trip began, but within no time, I realised that this was the best decision I took for myself. Saurav was a really friendly and easy-going trip leader and Mani Bhai was the sweetest local guide ever, who drove us around and also developed such a lovely bond with us. Both of them took great care of the group. Felt like family! ?? Lovely stay and food arrangements - never faced an issue even once. Most memorable trip! Thankyou!
