The Rohil Basmai Valley Trek is another eye-opening experience. This trail is a first for the trekking fraternity, except for the locals. The route is versatile since the trek shows something new at every turn. You’re hiking up a section of trail that’s packed with boulders when all of a sudden, an alpine lake emerges out of sight, surrounded by glacier snowy peaks.

The lonely aspect of this trail enhances its charm. In this place, it’s hard to find signs of human activity. It is just you and the mountains, except for the Gujjars and Bakarwals. This isolation provides a unique opportunity to immerse yourself in nature, far from the distractions of modern life. Each step on the Rohil Basmai Valley Trek allows you to breathe in the fresh mountain air and absorb the breathtaking scenery that unfolds before you.

Located at an altitude of 4,000 meters, one of the remote places to visit in the Kashmir Himalayas, it lies in the Jammu and Kashmir districts of Ganderbal and Anantnag, sharing its borderline with Zanskar on the other hand, and is dominated by the magnificent peak of Kolahoi. The Rohil Basmai Valley Trek is not just a journey through stunning landscapes; it’s a chance to connect with the untouched beauty of the Himalayas and experience the true essence of trekking in this enchanting region.
