The Gulmarg Gondola is one of the most iconic highlights of Gulmarg tourism. This two-stage cable car rises from Gulmarg village at 2,600 meters up to the slopes of Mount Apharwat at 3,980 meters, making it the highest operational gondola in Asia. Phase 1 carries visitors to the scenic Kongdoori meadow, while Phase 2 continues higher into alpine terrain, where adventure seekers can access over 1,400 vertical meters of thrilling backcountry runs, one of the top things to do in Gulmarg for winter enthusiasts. Even if you’re not skiing, the ride offers some of the most breathtaking Gulmarg sightseeing experiences. From the upper station, sweeping Himalayan views stretch across the region, and on clear days, you can even spot the distant Nanga Parbat massif across the border.
What makes this place special
At the upper station of the Gulmarg Gondola, perched at 3,980 meters, you’re rewarded with sweeping 360-degree panoramas across the Pir Panjal Range and the vast Kashmir valley. This breathtaking vantage point can be a defining moment in any well-planned Gulmarg trip.
