Trekking base in the Himalayan regions is very popular in Gulmarg. Way back in the 19th century, the British discovered Gulmarg as a tourist place. Before this discovery, the area was vacation by the Mughal emperors. The northern Pir Panjal Range in Gulmarg is an ideal place for trekking. At an altitude of approximately 1,500 feet above the hillside dominated by forests, the Nanga Parbat is visible from a number of view points. While you are at a distance, the Pir Panjal Range seems to be rounded. But when you are walking up the slopes the view is entirely different from what is appears from a distance. While you trek, you will observe that the smooth peaks of the hills rise above the slopes dominated by evergreen forests. The steepness of these peaks appears to be equal like those of the Himalayas.
