When most travelers think of Gulmarg, iconic snowfields and Asia’s highest gondola ride instantly come to mind[cite: 1]. However, right around **Tangmarg**—the official gateway town where our office is based—lie several breathtaking, lesser-known locations that most mass-market itineraries completely miss[cite: 1, 3].
1. Drung Waterfall: A Frozen Wonder
Located just a short drive from Tangmarg, Drung is a stunning cascading waterfall surrounded by towering mountains. In summer, it offers an oasis of cool mountain air and lush greenery. In peak winter, the rushing waterfall freezes completely into massive, sculptural blue-white icicles—making it one of the most cinematic photography spots in Jammu & Kashmir.
2. Naranag and Ferozpora Nallah
If you want to escape the regular tourist footfall, exploring the serene river trails around Ferozpora offers pristine pine forests and crystal-clear glacial streams. These spots are ideal for quiet day picnics, nature photography, and experiencing rural Kashmiri life away from crowded city centers.
