Located in Jammu & Kashmir's Baramulla district at an elevation of approximately 2,650 meters, Gulmarg is one of India's leading winter sports destinations. The Gulmarg Gondola - among the world's highest cable cars - carries visitors up to Apharwat Peak for skiing, snowboarding, and panoramic Himalayan views. Summer meadows give way to snow-covered slopes each winter, supporting both adventure tourism and the Gulmarg Biosphere Reserve's alpine ecosystem, while nearby Tangmarg connects the region easily to Srinagar.
