A road trip to Srinagar offers an adventurous and scenic journey. You can either hire a private car or opt for self-driving. The Jammu–Srinagar National Highway, part of NH 44, connects Srinagar in the Kashmir Valley to Jammu. This highway, along with the Mughal Road, links the Kashmir Valley to the rest of India. The route passes through picturesque districts like Pulwama, Anantnag, Kulgam, Ramban, and Udhampur, ending in Jammu city. Keep in mind that the highway may be closed during winter due to heavy snowfall, landslides, and avalanches.
If you're considering traveling to Srinagar by bus, there are several options available from major cities like Delhi, Chandigarh, Jammu, and Leh. The relatively new highway between Srinagar and Jammu has significantly reduced travel time. However, be aware that bus conditions can vary, potentially leading to an uncomfortable journey. The J&K SRTC bus station is where you can board your bus, and these buses typically arrive either early in the morning or late at night, so plan accordingly. Direct buses from Delhi are also available but take nearly a full day to reach Srinagar.
The nearest railway stations to Srinagar are Jammu Tawi (271 km away) and Udhampur Railway Station (200 km away). These stations are well-connected to major cities across India. From these stations, you can hire private cabs or take State Government buses to reach Srinagar.
Srinagar Airport, also known as Sheikh ul Alam Airport (IATA code SXR), is the most convenient option for air travelers. While it is an international airport, it primarily handles domestic flights from cities like Delhi, Chandigarh, Amritsar, Bangalore, and Mumbai. Airlines such as IndiGo, SpiceJet, GoAir, and Air India offer regular flights to Srinagar. The airport is located just 15 km from the city center, and prepaid taxis are available for transport into the city. Due to strict security measures and potential long queues, it is advisable to arrive well in advance of your flight time.
