Kashmir Great Lakes Trek 2025 – Alpine Paradise of Seven Lakes | Terranova Adventure

Overview

Kashmir Great Lakes Trek – Heaven on Earth for Trekkers

The Kashmir Great Lakes Trek (13,800 ft) is often called the crown jewel of Himalayan treks — a trail that takes you through the most breathtaking alpine landscapes in Kashmir Valley. Over 7 days, trekkers witness a chain of seven spectacular high-altitude lakes, each surrounded by snow-dusted peaks and lush green meadows.

From Sonamarg to Naranag, every step of this 75 km trail unfolds postcard-perfect beauty — rolling grasslands, wildflowers, glacial rivers, and shepherd huts set against towering Himalayan ridges.

If you dream of a trek that combines raw adventure, untouched nature, and surreal beauty, the Kashmir Great Lakes Trek is an unforgettable journey into paradise.
