Dear Suresh I am visiting Kashmir from April 15 to June 20 or so, and would be passing through J & K National high way in my own car (Maruti Swift or Hyundai Verna), once in April and Once in June. Is there a possibility of spending 2-3 days in Paddar valley better in June when flora would be more luxuriant. Give me some information how this can be done.
