Temperature in Kashmir

Spring (March-April): 8°C-17°C

Summer (May-August): 12°C-30°C

Autumn (September-October): 9°C-22°C

Winter (November - early March): -2°C-22°C

When is the best time to go to Kashmir?

The best time to visit Kashmir is from March to September. When spring arrives at the end of March, it brings with it blue skies, seasonal blooms and green meadows perfect for picnics.

Summer, from May to September, has mild temperatures, clear views and large crowds. This is the peak season in Kashmir, when hotel and airfare prices skyrocket. This is the season for shikaras on glassy lakes, walks in beautiful orchards, quiet hikes on pine-covered slopes and lazy relaxation by the river.

July through September is the best time for long treks, such as the Great Lakes Trek of Kashmir, which takes you to the region's high altitude glacial lakes. Gardens like Nishat Bagh and Shalimar Bagh are most beautiful in spring and summer. The Amarnath Yatra pilgrimage also takes place during this season, usually between July and August. You can also expect a little rain in Kashmir in summer.

Autumn comes in September and lasts until October. During this season, when the chinar leaves start to turn, the landscape turns into a sea of red and gold. At this time, Kashmir is magnificent.

In November, temperatures begin to drop as winter sets in to the valley. Winter in Kashmir is harsh and long, with sub-zero temperatures and heavy snow in many parts of the region. The most intense part of the season is Chilai Kalan, a 40-day period when Kashmir faces its harshest winter with overcast skies and heavy snow. During this time, flights may be canceled and roads may be closed, so it's best to check the latest weather forecasts and travel advisories. However, winter is the best time to visit Kashmir if you want to relax amidst the winter scenery.
