Sindh Serenity Riverside Homestay-Sonamarg

Sindh Serenity Riverside Homestay-Sonamarg 

This homestay is located 29 km from Sonamarg, a hill station in Jammu and Kashmir. Historically, it was part of the silk route connecting Kashmir and Tibet. The area is also known as the ‘Meadow of Gold.’ From July to August, the region experiences its best weather, with several trekking routes from Sonamarg leading to stunning destinations like Gangabal Lake and Gadsar Lake. These glacier-fed lakes are surrounded by alpine flowers, while the snow-capped mountains, glaciers, and offbeat spots in the Sonamarg valley attract nature enthusiasts, adventure seekers, and tourists eager to explore the scenic beauty of the area.

Nestled along the banks of the Sindh River, this homestay provide two classic rooms with attached bathrooms, all located on the ground floor. The interior showcases the traditional wooden architecture, reflecting the charm of Kashmiri homes. The spacious living and dining rooms are bright and filled with sunlight, creating a cozy and warm atmosphere. Guests can also enjoy the front garden and a hut-shaped balcony with views of the Sindh River. Sipping Kashmiri chai or Kahwa while taking in the snow-covered mountains is a perfect way to embrace the beauty of the region.
