And you wouldn\u2019t be wrong. But if you think the Gulmarg Gondola is just another scenic joyride, let me stop you right there. This iconic ropeway in Gulmarg isn&#8217;t just about the views\u2014it\u2019s an engineering marvel, a gateway to high-altitude adventure, and one of the top things to do in Gulmarg all year round, especially in summer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Unlike most cable cars in India that fade into obscurity once the snow melts, the Gulmarg Gondola stays relevant through the seasons, offering panoramic Himalayan views, easy access to high-altitude trekking trails, and a unique perspective of the Kashmir valley in full bloom. Whether you\u2019re planning a summer holiday to Kashmir with family or curating a list of the top Gulmarg attractions, this ropeway ride deserves a prime spot on your itinerary, especially since it is the best way to enjoy Gulmarg weather. <\/p>\n\n\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_80 ez-toc-wrap-left counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-custom ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">In this Blog<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/best-places-to-visit-in-kashmir-top-tourist-attractions-like-gulmarg-gondola\/#So_What_Exactly_is_the_Gulmarg_Gondola\" >So, What Exactly is the Gulmarg Gondola?<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-2\" href=\"https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/best-places-to-visit-in-kashmir-top-tourist-attractions-like-gulmarg-gondola\/#What_to_Know_Before_You_Go_for_Gulmarg_Gondola\" >What to Know Before You Go for Gulmarg Gondola:<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-3\" href=\"https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/best-places-to-visit-in-kashmir-top-tourist-attractions-like-gulmarg-gondola\/#Gulmarg_Gondola_Phase-Wise_Breakdown\" >Gulmarg Gondola Phase-Wise Breakdown<\/a><ul class='ez-toc-list-level-3' ><li class='ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-4\" href=\"https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/best-places-to-visit-in-kashmir-top-tourist-attractions-like-gulmarg-gondola\/#Phase_1_Gulmarg_to_Kongdoori\" >Phase 1: Gulmarg to Kongdoori<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-5\" href=\"https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/best-places-to-visit-in-kashmir-top-tourist-attractions-like-gulmarg-gondola\/#Phase_2_Kongdoori_to_Apharwat_Peak\" >Phase 2: Kongdoori to Apharwat Peak<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-3'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-6\" href=\"https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/best-places-to-visit-in-kashmir-top-tourist-attractions-like-gulmarg-gondola\/#What_Makes_This_Kashmir_Gondola_Special\" >What Makes This Kashmir Gondola Special<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-7\" href=\"https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/best-places-to-visit-in-kashmir-top-tourist-attractions-like-gulmarg-gondola\/#Best_Time_to_Ride_and_Book_the_Gulmarg_Gondola\" >Best Time to Ride and Book the Gulmarg Gondola<\/a><\/li><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-8\" href=\"https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/best-places-to-visit-in-kashmir-top-tourist-attractions-like-gulmarg-gondola\/#Where_to_Stay_in_Gulmarg_Comfort_Beyond_the_Cold\" >Where to Stay in Gulmarg: Comfort Beyond the Cold<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"so-what-exactly-is-the-gulmarg-gondola\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"So_What_Exactly_is_the_Gulmarg_Gondola\"><\/span><strong>So, What Exactly is the Gulmarg Gondola?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n<p>The Gulmarg Gondola in Kashmir is a two-phase Gulmarg cable car system in Jammu and Kashmir that takes you from the base of Gulmarg to Kongdoori and then further up from Kongdoori to Apharwat Peak. Phase 1 gets you to around 8,530 feet. Phase 2? That\u2019s a sky-scraping 13,400 feet.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s also one of the highest and longest cable cars in Asia, making it one of the best things to do in Gulmarg in summer season.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But here\u2019s the kicker: It&#8217;s charmingly adventurous. You get swaying cars, dramatic wind gusts, and sometimes a nervous co-passenger loudly whispering prayers. The ride gives you more than just views\u2014it gives you stories.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" src=\"https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ankit-girwal-2kZxMumAzkM-unsplash-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-22263\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ankit-girwal-2kZxMumAzkM-unsplash-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ankit-girwal-2kZxMumAzkM-unsplash-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ankit-girwal-2kZxMumAzkM-unsplash-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ankit-girwal-2kZxMumAzkM-unsplash-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ankit-girwal-2kZxMumAzkM-unsplash-2048x1365.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ankit-girwal-2kZxMumAzkM-unsplash-370x247.jpg 370w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ankit-girwal-2kZxMumAzkM-unsplash-770x513.jpg 770w, https:\/\/www.stayvista.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/ankit-girwal-2kZxMumAzkM-unsplash-150x100.jpg 150w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image by <a href=\"https:\/\/unsplash.com\/@ankitgirwal\">Ankit Girwal<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-to-know-before-you-go-for-gulmarg-gondola\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_to_Know_Before_You_Go_for_Gulmarg_Gondola\"><\/span><strong>What to Know Before You Go for Gulmarg Gondola:<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<p><strong>Timings:<\/strong> Usually open from 10 AM to 5 PM (weather dependent).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Gulmarg Gondola<\/strong> <strong>Tickets:<\/strong> Can be booked online or at the counter; Phase 2 tickets are sold only after verifying weather conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Clothing:<\/strong> Even in summer, it\u2019s chilly at higher altitudes\u2014carry a light jacket or windcheater.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Best Views:<\/strong> Morning rides are recommended for clearer skies and fewer crowds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We recommend booking your tickets a lot in advance to ensure you actually have a chance to make it there.<\/p>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"gulmarg-gondola-phasewise-breakdown\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Gulmarg_Gondola_Phase-Wise_Breakdown\"><\/span><strong>Gulmarg Gondola Phase-Wise Breakdown<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"phase-1-gulmarg-to-kongdoori\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Phase_1_Gulmarg_to_Kongdoori\"><\/span><strong>Phase 1: Gulmarg to Kongdoori<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>This stretch is great if you\u2019re a fan of gradually letting go of control. It starts off smooth as you ascend\u2014then you\u2019re lifted off the forest floor, leaving behind the snow-covered golf course (yes, that\u2019s a thing in Gulmarg). <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>At Kongdoori, you&#8217;ll find yourself admiring the view for the most part. There\u2019s a tiny tea shack that somehow survives the icy wrath of winter. You\u2019ll find yourself sipping on the famous Kahwa, standing in ankle-deep snow. <\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"phase-2-kongdoori-to-apharwat-peak\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Phase_2_Kongdoori_to_Apharwat_Peak\"><\/span><strong>Phase 2: Kongdoori to Apharwat Peak<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>This part is more of a survival journey, but better views. You rise up fast, and the temperature drops further. Visibility plays hide and seek. One moment you\u2019re marvelling at the snow dunes below; the next, you can barely see your own reflection in the cable car window\u2014all while feeling the best thrill you can possibly imagine here.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Apharwat Peak, when not swallowed by clouds, is beautifully photogenic. It is not necessarily for the faint hearted as altitude sickness could be a possibility. Many first-timers spend more time gasping than photographing, but if you can survive that, we assure you&#8217;re in for a well-deserved treat.<\/p>\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"what-makes-this-kashmir-gondola-special\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Makes_This_Kashmir_Gondola_Special\"><\/span><strong>What Makes This Kashmir Gondola Special<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n<p>Each car makes a low mechanical hum, like an old printer that refuses to quit.

It\u2019s about the nervous laughter inside the car when it sways. The hot tea that tastes like magic after a freezing climb. The locals who carry snowboards like they&#8217;re carrying shopping bags. It\u2019s about being part of something slightly chaotic, totally real, and very high up. It is among those exciting places to visit in Gulmarg that are equal parts thrill and scenic.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This Kashmir ropeway isn\u2019t polished. It\u2019s not always smooth. But it has heart\u2014and sometimes, that\u2019s all a ride needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So if you\u2019re planning a trip to Kashmir in May and June, and wondering whether to say yes to the Gondola ride booking in Gulmarg\u2014then it&#8217;s all worth the experience. Because this ride doesn\u2019t just lift you off the ground, it lifts your mood, spirits, and occasionally, the thrill seeker in you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Gulmarg Gondola is one of the top tourist attractions in Gulmarg and a must-include activity in any Gulmarg travel itinerary\u2014especially during the summer season, perfect to make the most of Gulmarg weather in May and June. Recognized as one of the highest cable car rides in Asia, the Gulmarg Gondola offers stunning panoramic views of snow-capped peaks, green valleys, and dense pine forests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And, don\u2019t forget to smile at the top.
