Route Overview: Srinagar Airport to Yusmarg
The journey covers approximately 85 kilometres, taking around 2.5 to 3 hours depending on traffic at Magam and road works near Tangmarg. From Sheikh Ul-Alam Airport, your driver will navigate Boulevard Road past Dal Lake’s iconic shikaras, join NH44 at Dalgate, then pass through Pampore’s saffron fields and Magam’s fruit orchards. Beyond Tangmarg, the road narrows—forest tracks wind through pine and fir, opening onto Yusmarg’s vast green meadows under the Pir Panjal range.
Along the way, you’ll pass:
- Saffron farms in Pampore, where local women hand-pick red stigmas.
- Magam’s roadside tea stalls serving garam kahwa and sheermal.
- Tangmarg town, the base for Gulmarg adventures, before branching off towards Aragam village.

What story will you take back from these tranquil meadows?
I'm Suhail Ahmad, born and raised in Srinagar. In 2020 I founded Kashmir Tour Packages Taxi — a licensed taxi and tour operator registered with the Jammu & Kashmir Tourism Department — because I saw too many visitors arrive in Kashmir with bad information, unreliable drivers, and no idea what was actually worth seeing.
Every article I write comes from personal experience on these routes: the correct season to visit Thajiwas Glacier, the checkpoints you'll cross on the way to Gulmarg, where the road to Betaab Valley gets narrow, what Amarnath Yatra pilgrims actually need to know before they book a taxi. I don't write from Wikipedia. I write from having driven these roads myself, with guests in the back seat.
Our fleet covers Srinagar, Gulmarg, Pahalgam, Sonamarg, Doodhpathri, Yusmarg, Amarnath, and long-haul routes to Leh and Jammu under All India Tourist Vehicle Permits. If something I've written about a route, price, or season seems off — call me directly on +91 9149531004. I answer that number myself.
