It was a beautiful experience did approx 35km from Pahalgam, yatra we started in morning 7am and reached the base camp pe pospatri at the evening there was the facility of accommodation and food arranged by various devotees which was quite good and managed well then the next day we started our yatra again at 7-8am and reached the Holy cave. Things to be kept in mind are :- 1. Always carry a rain coat as weather is unpredictable. 2. Keep your bag as light as possible if you want to trek at a good pace. 3. Keep hydrating yourself and keep essential medicines such as of fever, loose motions, vomiting. 4. Keep yourself cover well temperature drops immediate. Our Indian army is always there for the help if you fell any kind of discomfort do contact them there 5-10 metres away at every point. Overall the yatra was beautiful and cannot be described in words. The yatra open only in Savan month do have a registration before you go for yatra and do have a medical checkup which is mandatory for the yatra the you have to receive the RFID which you may get from locations decided in Jammu and shrinagar. There are 2 routes one is from Pahalgam which will take you approx 2-3 days to complete the yatra as it is of approx 35-40km and rest point are provided. Second is from Baltal which is approx 15-16km but very steep. So if you want to visit sheshnaag lake you have to take the route from Pahalgam. So this was our Journey to Shree Amarnath Ji Holy cave.

Great holy place trek is mesmerising. I started my trekking from way of baltal , it is around 13 km of steep climbing but completely mind blowing. Clouds passing through valley , pony and sheep's grazing on grassland came out of ice. Peaks covered under snow and shining like mirrors. Parallel Rivers and waterfalls are your companions in whole trek .once in life time you must visit and feel this

The holy cave, located in Sind Valley, is surrounded by glaciers, snowy mountains and is covered with snow most of the year, except for a short period in the summer,

March to August is considered the best time for a pilgrimage to the famous Hindu shrine of Amarnath. The trek usually takes 3-5 days one way. Amarnath Cave open for three months only, from June to August. This is the only time you can embark on Amarnath Yatra and seek blessings.

Each person's dream to see the shrine fulfilled by the grace of bholenath. We cannot express, you may get tears when you stand in front of the lord Eshwara. As you feel the divinity within yourself. Better to go by doli as the trecking for 50 plus age is difficult, slippery and very high and mud. Experience yourself the feeling you may get

Jai Baba Amarnath Ji! This place should be given 10 stars. Please do not litter here and keep it clean as much as possible. Har Har mhaadev
