Dry Winter Season In Kashmir

Tourists are riding snow scooters in Leopard Valley Meadows, typically inaccessible during winters, in Gulmarg, a ski destination in the Baramulla district of Indian-administered Kashmir, on January 23, 2024. The Kashmir Valley, renowned for its picturesque snow-clad landscapes, is currently experiencing an unexpected lack of snowfall this year. This climatic shift is impacting the tourism sector and could potentially harm the region's glaciers and water bodies. The absence of snow this season is causing thousands of tourists to turn away from the Kashmir Valley, with many canceling or postponing their bookings for the upcoming months.
