Traveller notes on Gulmarg in July

Other months in Gulmarg

Gulmarg's forum calls January through February peak season for genuine snow, the landscape under a thick blanket and skiers arriving from around the world. Regulars are candid the cold is genuinely harsh this time of year, and recommend centrally heated hotels over houseboats — book well ahead since rooms fill fast during peak snow season.
