Located in the heart of Yusmarg, which is about 47km south of Srinagar, Sunset Peak is one of the staggering elevations in the Kashmir Valley of India. This majestic peak provides a breathtaking view of the lower Himalayas and the surrounding dense forests made up of pine and fir trees. Also known as 'Frozen Lake', it is a haven for nature lovers and trekking enthusiasts. The tranquility and the panoramic vista of Nanga Parbat and the Pir Panjal range can make anyone feel lost in natureâ€™s grandeur. Yusmarg itself is an enchanting meadow, graced with lush greenery, clear streams, and blooming flowers, making Sunset Peak its crowning glory. Horses grazing in the meadows below, the play of light and shadow across the day, and the spectacular sunset views make it a perfect spot for photography and relaxation. The peak is relatively untouched by tourism, which keeps its natural beauty pristine.
