In morning after having breakfast, check out from hotel & proceed for local tour of Pahalgam (7200 feet a.s.l), means "VILLAGE OF SHEPHERDS". In Pahalgam visit Chandanwari (3288 meters above sea level), Aru Valley, Betaab Valley, Baisaran, at your own cost by local cabs, as there is some issue with union of local cab. Local taxi can be hired from Pahalgam for a roundtrip. The trip takes about four-five hours on a semi-road that has the Lidder river meandering on the one side, and lofty, snow-capped mountains on the other. "Snow fights" is what people generally indulge in here before they sledge back down. Chandanwari, situated 16-km from Pahalgam, is famous for snow sledging on a snow bridge. Chandanwari is also known for its natural attractions. It has some of the best picnic spots and is reachable by road. The weather can be very unpredictable at the place so do carry some warm clothes and rain coats as well. Betaab Valley, earlier known as Hagan Valley or Hagoon, got its present name after the blockbuster Bollywood movie 'Betaab' was shot there in 1983. The experience is even more heightened by the musical whispers of several birds. Being a precious jewel of Jammu and Kashmir, Betaab Valley is among a handful of Pahalgam tourist places to visit that should not be missed. Situated at a walking distance from the main center of Pahalgam, the valley is also an excellent camping site for trekkers and explorers.
