Yes, you read it right! The Cable Car project in Gulmarg Gondola, Kashmir has set the record for being THE Highest and Longest Cable Car ride in Asia, and the Second Highest and Longest in the world! The cable car ride is about 32 mins in total, with 3 Phases, Phase 1 ranging from the Gulmarg resort to Kongdori Station (2.6 km in 9 mins), Phase 2 from Kongdori Station to the Kongdori Mountain (3.7 km in 12 mins), and finally, a Chairlift ride from the Kongdori to the Mary Shoulder to the skiing venue in just 11 mins.
Another reason to check out the Gulmarg Cable Cars is the fact that it overlooks the dense clouds around the snow-capped mountains, frosty forests, and an exquisitely unique out-worldly view of the landscape that will make your trip all the more romantic and special! If you’re looking for a winter retreat, then the best time to visit Gulmarg is between October and March, when the temperatures linger above beyond negatives, typically around -3 degrees to 11 degrees. Add this wonder to this year’s bucket list, and get first-hand experience in being astounded by the picturesque sceneries of the Gulmarg Gondola!
