Alpather Lake, located at a distance of 13 kms from Gulmarg, rests at the foot of the 4511 mts tall Apharwat peak. The lake remains frozen through most of the year till mid June. During summers the lake has clear water with floating pieces of ice creating a picturesque sight. Triangular in shape, the lake, with a backdrop of snow covered mountains also attracts sightseers. Visitors can reach Alpather Lake from Gulmarg after a daylong expedition. Pony rides also take visitors to the destination. Those interested in horse riding can make a day's trip, starting early in the morning. Adventure enthusiasts can climb the ridge of the Apharwat Peak that ascends straight up and then hike down to the other side.
