Lightbulb ZAZIMARG GALI and beyond till eternity

Well if yu speak of jammu and kashmir, the first thing that comes to mind is vale beautiful and Gulmarg. But has anybody heard of Zazimarg. Its one of the most beautiful spot on earth at 12000 feet. Just imagine standing on a pass with rocky cliffs and dense forests on one side and a lush greeen grassland dotted by beautiful lakes on the other, for miles and miles. Well I am talking of beautiful Zazimarg, its the point where district of Udhampur ends and Kashmir begins and its in the hinterland and not on maps but unfortunately yu cant be go there ......

Thumbs up zazimarg and beyond

well what I described yu is a pastureland at 12000 feet . Why u can't go there ?? Its because firstly the nearest roadhead is 50 kms and thereafter its all walking along trail. It may take yu two days if yu r a good trekker and one full day ( 18-20 hrs walk)if yu r extremely great. Secondly , this area is blocked for 6 months due to heavy snow fall and thirdly and the most importantly its very unsafe in prevalent conditions. ( i hope yu understand).
I forgot to mention , from here yu can see kashmir valley like yu see the footage from satellite. Yu can pinpoint all the important towns, rivers etc and on the horizon yu see very-very tall mountain peaks , the highest one I was told is the Nanga Parbat ( I am sure its something very famous if not Nanga Parbat).
I will tell yu of more exotic places in near future.
