Getting There

Car
If you are traveling by car, start your journey from Srinagar, the capital of Jammu and Kashmir. Take the NH44 highway heading towards Jammu. After approximately 70 km, you will reach the town of Udhampur. From there, take the exit toward the Gool Valley road (also known as the Gool-Sudh Mahadev road). Continue along this road for about 45 km until you reach Gool Valley. Be prepared for winding roads and beautiful scenic views along the way. Make sure to fill up your fuel tank in Udhampur as there are limited facilities on the way.
-
Public Transportation
For those using public transportation, take a bus from Srinagar to Udhampur. Buses leave frequently from the Srinagar bus station, and the fare is approximately INR 300-400. Once you arrive in Udhampur, you can hire a shared taxi or local jeep to Gool Valley. The shared taxi fare should be around INR 150-200 per person, and the journey will take about 1.5 to 2 hours. Ensure you inform the driver of your destination, as they may not be familiar with Gool Valley specifically.
-
Taxi
If you prefer a more comfortable ride, you can hire a private taxi from Srinagar. This option is the most convenient but also the most expensive. The cost for hiring a taxi for a round trip to Gool Valley can range from INR 3500-5000, depending on the type of vehicle and negotiation. The driver will take the same route via NH44 and Gool-Sudh Mahadev road, and you can enjoy the scenery without worrying about navigation.
