Baisaran

About this place

Often dubbed as ‘Mini Switzerland’ because of its long dark meadows resembling the ones in Switzerland, Baisaran is an eye-catching meadow 5 km away from Pahalgam. The dense pine forest that gives the green carpet look to the meadow provides a contrasting hue to the snow-capped peaks of the surrounding mountains. Baisaran is also an ideal campsite for trekkers who want to move further up to Tullian Lake. Accessible through ponies from Pahalgam, this off-beaten track of Jammu and Kashmir tourism offers panoramic sights of the town and Lidder Valley.
