Golfing
Kashmir
offers a unique opportunity to play golf all
through the summer - from April to November - in
invigorating surroundings where the wind whispers
through trees of chinar and pine.
In the verdant golf
courses at Srinagar and Gulmarg, you will be able
to play for longer hours than you can in the
plains because of the lower temperatures -
Srinagar's highest temperature never goes above 30
deg. C. Srinagar has an 18 hole golf course with
common fairways, and a par of 70. The course at
Gulmarg is like nothing you have ever seen or
imagined before. Situated at an incredibly high
altitude of 3730 metres above sea level, it is the
highest green golf course anywhere in the
world. The layout of the course too is strikingly
different from most golf courses - hardly any
stretch is flat - the land slopes and inclines
along the complete area of the course which has a
par of 72.
