Day 2: Srinagar to Pahalgam | Easy Drive | Overnight Stay

Day 3: Pahalgam to Chandanwari | Trek to Sheshnag | Overnight Stay at Sheshnag Camps

This day marks the start of your yatra journey. After an early breakfast, you will proceed to Chandanwari by vehicle, from where the trek begins towards Sheshnag. The route is scenic with mountain views, yatra facilities, and multiple support points on the way. You can take breaks at designated rest points, langars, and medical help stations.
