Towering 6 Days Kolahoi Glacier Kashmir Tour Package | Grand
Overview
Kolahoi is the largest glacier in the Kashmir Valley โ a body of ice descending from the Kolahoi peak at approximately 5,425 metres through the upper Lidder catchment above Pahalgam. The glacier feeds the Lidder River that runs through the Pahalgam bazaar 25 kilometres below, which means every visitor who has sat beside that river has been drinking the melt of this ice without knowing the source. The approach to the glacier lower zone follows the Lidder Valley through Aru village and Lidderwat meadow โ a two-day walk from the Pahalgam base that most Kashmir visitors never make because the single-night Pahalgam stop in the standard circuit does not allow it. This kolahoi glacier kashmir tour package builds the time required into the structure โ two nights above the vehicle base, the glacier approach as the reason for the trip.
Bon Voyagers handles the pickup from Srinagar Airport and covers five nights with a private Innova, Xylo or Scorpio class vehicle throughout. Night 1 is in Srinagar. Night 2 is at Pahalgam. Night 3 is at Aru Village guest house โ the trailhead settlement 12 kilometres from Pahalgam. Night 4 is at Lidderwat meadow camp at approximately 3,175 metres. Day 5 returns from Lidderwat through Aru to Pahalgam for the overnight. Day 6 returns to Srinagar Airport. A certified local guide is required from Aru Village onward. Daily breakfast and dinner on MAP basis throughout.

Best Time to Visit
The trail from Aru to Lidderwat is open from approximately June through September. July and August give the warmest temperatures at camp level and the most reliable trail conditions. June gives a quieter trail with last snow visible on the lower approach slopes. September gives autumn colour on the lower meadow sections and the lightest footfall of the summer season. The glacier retreat is most clearly visible from Lidderwat in September when summer melt has exposed the maximum rock margin below the current ice edge.
