Duration: 12 Nights / 13 Days.
Destination: Srinagar - Sonmarg - Delhi
World Class Trout Fishing
Kashmir has been rightly called an angler's paradise, with a
network of rivers and streams, as well as high altitude
lakes abounding in both brown and rainbow trout.
Kashmir's fabled natural beauty needs no introduction. The
rivers Sindh and Lidder offer some of the finest mountain
river trout fishing anywhere in the world today. As their
waters are swollen during the summer by melting glaciers,
they provide the right environment for trout. At this time
the trout offer very demanding sport, compelling the anglers
to fish deeply on the edge of the rock-strewn torrent. A day
spent beside the river, meandering through the rugged
bolder-strewn landscape, will remain in your memory forever.
