Overview

The Katra-Srinagar Vande Bharat Express began commercial operations in June 2025 โ€” the first time in history that a passenger train connected the Kashmir Valley to the Indian mainland rail network. The 272-kilometre Udhampur-Srinagar-Baramulla Rail Link, thirty years in construction through some of the most difficult terrain in the Himalayas, produced a railway that crosses the Chenab River on a bridge approximately 359 metres above the water โ€” the highest railway bridge in the world. The journey from Katra to Srinagar takes approximately 3 hours on the Vande Bharat Express and passes through a series of tunnels cut through the Pir Panjal rock including sections where mobile connectivity drops completely before the valley opens on the far side. This kashmir tour package by train is built around that journey as its opening statement and then covers the full Kashmir valley circuit across the five days that follow.

Bon Voyagers handles the pickup from Katra Railway Station and covers five nights with a private Innova, Xylo or Scorpio class vehicle from Srinagar onward. Day 1 takes the Vande Bharat from Katra to Srinagar with the Chenab Bridge crossing in the first section of the run. Days 2 through 5 cover the Kashmir valley circuit โ€” Pahalgam in the Lidder Valley, Sonamarg on the Sindh River, Gulmarg on the Pir Panjal foothills and Srinagar for the final overnight before the airport drop on Day 6. Train tickets from Katra to Srinagar are booked separately by the traveller through IRCTC and are not included in the package cost. Daily breakfast and dinner on MAP basis throughout.

Itinerary

The kashmir tour package by train begins at Katra Railway Station โ€” the Shri Mata Vaishno Devi Katra station on the USBRL that serves as the southern gateway of the Kashmir rail corridor. The Vande Bharat Express departs Katra in the morning and the first significant feature of the journey arrives within the first hour โ€” the crossing of the Chenab River on a bridge approximately 359 metres above the water, the highest railway bridge in the world. The Pir Panjal range requires a series of tunnels on the route, the longest of which cuts mobile connectivity for several minutes โ€” download offline content before boarding. The train arrives at Srinagar station in approximately 3 hours. The Bon Voyagers vehicle is waiting at Srinagar station for the pickup. The afternoon covers the Dal Lake Shikara ride, the Mughal Gardens at Nishat and Shalimar and the Hazratbal Shrine. Overnight in Srinagar.
