Best Time To Trek To Tarsar Marsar, Kashmir Great Lakes

The Tarsar Marsar Trek in Kashmir is easily the prettiest trek in India. You trek from one lake to another, from Tarsar, to Marsar and then to Sundarsar and you have the big bonus of camping beside two of these lakes! No other trek in Kashmir gives you that luxury, not even the Kashmir Great Lakes trek.

But to see Tarsar Marsar in Kashmir at its best, you must time your trek well. So what is the best time to do the Tarsar Marsar trek in Kashmir? The season begins from July, goes through August and ends towards mid-September. This is the best season to do the Tarsar Marsar trek.

In July is when the snow has just melted and you'll still find snow patches at the pass crossings. In August is when it rains a little, but that's when wild flowers really bloom! In September is when the skies are clearer. It's when you should time your trek if you're into star gazing or astrophotography.

Does it rain at this time of the year? Yes, it does. Kashmir is indeed a monsoon trek. But it lies mostly in the rain shadow region of India. So you're not likely to experience too much rain. Having said that, make sure you carry all the monsoon gear required!
