An early check out and boarding the vehicle for a trip to Daksum is must. DAKSUM (8500 ft): A trekker's paradise (2 hours very scenic drive) swathed in coniferous forests, gurgling streams, hidden grassy meadows, where your only company is the sound of the gushing Bringhi river or an occasional shepherd tending his flock. Daksum is also famous for its trout - an angler's heaven.
On our way to Daksum we will be visiting a major tourist attraction called VerinagSpring. There is an octagonal stone basin at Verinag Spring and an arcade surrounding it which were built by Mughal emperor Jahangir in 1620 A.D. Later, a beautiful garden next to this spring, was laid out by his son Shah Jahan. This spring is known to never dry up or overflow.
Kokernag, a place in south kashmir is also a major desitnation to be seen. The spring gushes out of the base of a thickly wooded hill from where it divides into channels, which resembles to the claw-foot of a hen, hence its name.
We will also be visiting the famous Martand Sun temple. Martand Temple was selected as the background for the song Bismil, in the popular Bollywood movie Haider.
Retire back to the hotel for an overnight stay to refresh yourself for a busy tight scheduled day in pahalgam .
