Doodhpathri Meadows

About

Doodhpathri Meadows spread out like a wide green carpet tucked into the Budgam region, where pine forests frame the edges and a milky-looking stream runs through the grass. The name “Doodhpathri” literally connects to the idea of milk, and the water sometimes appears pale and frothy as it moves over stones, especially when sunlight hits at the right angle. The meadow does not feel like a typical “one viewpoint and done” destination. It invites slow wandering, quiet picnics, and long photo stops. Horses graze in the open, the air stays cooler than Srinagar, and the landscape looks clean and refreshing, especially in summer when the rest of Kashmir can feel busier. Doodhpathri works best when visitors treat it like a slow nature day rather than a rushed sightseeing tick-box.
