We visited this beautiful place in the winters, January 2023.
The views are breathtaking and the entire experience was fantastic. Even though it can be a little touristy, the place is something you should not miss.
Tip - the local guides are excellent photographers & are fun company
Avoid taking the seat sledge ride but hire one of the sledge riders to give you company & click amazing pictures - you can just give them a tip for the same

Its a beautiful valley. The scenaries are breathtaking. You can do horse rides if you want to have the experience. Or else you can simply walk along. We paid 3000 for 4 horses to cover 6 points along with some generous tips to the ponywallas for their hard and difficult work. A must visit in Pahalgam.

Beautiful views and well maintained.
For senior citizens, you can higher the wheelchairs over there so they can view the valley too.
If you want to take a pony etc, so 1 hour is defintely less as the local cabs charge you extra post 1 hour, so time your visit accordingly.

The valley was indeed so beautiful and enchanting even on a wet day. It was raining when we reached Betaab valley but still that did not diminish our enthusiasm about the place. We were not able to see all of the points due to the rains. I recommend check the weather condition before going there. I am sure ob a bright summer day the valley will be a place to remember.

Betaab Valley is located in Pahalgam, near Fraslan village, Anantnag District, Jammu and Kashmir.
Once in Pahalgam you should not miss betaab valley. This place is just mesmerizing meadow with huge number of willow and pine trees, bisected by a river and surrounded and huge trees on its side . The name of the valley has been derived from the bollywood film "Betaab". All sort amenities (toilets, food & drinks, etc.) are available .

A short drive in the hills and you are at this beautiful valley. The green ground looks like manicured lawns. One can move around in the garden area on foot or take an improvised wheel trolley, which is pulled by a trained person. Be careful and bargain hard for proper price. Rs.300/350 for 1/2 hour ride should be the right price, against their demand of Rs.1,500/-.
The place is simply beautiful, just like other parts of Kashmir.

This is also a highly commercial place where you can only reach by tourist taxi where rates are fixed. you get one hour to spend there. The place was extremely crowded and we enjoyed only because we opted for the pony ride there

I would like to avoid pony ride due to back acche. How much one has to walk to reach Aru valley and Betaab valley? Are they difficult walk?

Aru valley tour is actually a drive, and there is no need to go on a pony. Just enjoy the scenery.
For Betaab Valley, there are hand pulled carts for those who do not want to walk much. The pony ride is for going up the hill and to the waterfalls.you can easily walk upto the waterfall. If you have a back problem, avoid climbing the hill. The gardens of Betaab Valley can be enjoyed by all

well you need one full day to check out all three places. betab valley and Chanadwadi are on one way/direction. Aru is on the opposite side though less than an hour from Pehalgam.
I think betaab valley without any activity will take 2 hours from Pahalgam, chandanwadi another 2 hours and 3 hours to Aru.
We are planning to visit kashmir on 25 march 2019. But we are worried about the loksova election. Does it affect our tour?? Or will we cancel our tour. Please suggest.

No I do not think there is. The most famous is Betaab Valley which is a must visit. Have never heard of Dino valley.

I didn't visit Betaab & Aru valleys during my April 2018 visit, but I saw Baisaran. Can we go by taxi to Aru & Betaab valleys from Mount view Hotel Pahalgam?

Yes you can rent a cab on trip basis or day basis but i think day basis would be cheaper and also best
I would recommend to start early in the morning as after wards the traffic starts and it is a one way sort of road and you will get stuck which would be time consuming

I am visiting between 2nd April, 2018 to 9th April, 2018.
Please guide about spring season (Basant):
Will there be any greenery in Dal lake area (tulip garden) on same ground level & other gardens ?
Also Snow in Pahalgam & Gulmarg is there I know, but on the way has new grass started growing naturally as it's spring season has started or will see barren lands only?

The valley can never look barren , that's the beauty of it .
Both Gulmarg & Pahalgam will be exciting enough, without the snow .
Don't forget to plan a day's excursion to Betaab Vallley on Pahalgam .
Happy Kashmir to you !
