Renovated and reopened in 2011 as an 18 hole layout, the Lidder Valley Golf Course in Pahalgam, a 3 hour drive from Srinagar, completes a golfing troika in the Himalayan state of Kashmir. Visiting golfers have been left spellbound by the spectacular beauty of the course surrounded by alpine vegetation in a backdrop of the snowcapped Himalayas. While the long yardage is not a factor in the rarified environment, accuracy is critical to score well on this hilly course, which demands reasonable fitness levels to walk it. Buggies are few at the Lidder Valley golf club and need to be booked in advance!
