Diskhal Tourism

Doodhpathri, situated in the Budgam district of Jammu and Kashmir, India, is a stunningly serene hill station and a less explored alternative to the famous Pahalgam and Gulmarg. Known as the 'Valley of Milk', it is believed that the waters here are so pure that they appear milk-like, hence the name Doodhpathri. The valley is a carpet of lush green meadows surrounded by dense forests and snow-clad mountains. The Doodhpathri meadow is sodden with the flow of the numerous streams that meander through the formation. It lies at an altitude of 8,957 ft above sea level and offers panoramic views of the beautiful Himalayan peaks. The place is accessible through a motorable road from Srinagar which is around 42 kilometers away. Doodhpathri is not only known for its picturesque landscapes but also for the various trekking routes that start from here. It provides a haven for people looking to escape the summer heat as it cools down significantly, even during the Indian summer. The valley has started to gain popularity among tourists who are seeking the tranquility of the pristine landscape and the opportunity for adventure in the lap of nature.
