After breakfast today, check-out from your hotel and proceed to Patnitop. Patnitop is a hilltop tourist destination located in Udhampur District at an altitude of 2024 metres across which the Jammu-Srinagar Highway passes. Check-in to your hotel at Patnitop and get ready for sightseeing.
At Patnitop, visit 600 years old Naag Temple dedicated to the snakes. The Naag temple is located near Mantalai at Krimchi, which is believed to be the place where Lord Shiva and Goddess Parvati’s marriage was held. Naag temple is considered as one of the oldest places in Patnitop that is said to be about 600 years old. Situated on top of a hill, this temple is visited by thousands of devotees during Naag Panchami festival. Inside temple photography is strictly prohibited.
Later, visit Natha Top, an ideal place for nature & adventurer lover surrounded by snow covered mountains. One reaches Nathatop after a short trek from Patnitop. The hill station is covered with snow during winters thereby enhancing its beauty two times. One can happily go skiing in these mountains. Nathatop has become very famous for its paragliding and sometimes people from different parts of the country travel to experience the beauty and these experiences offered by the place. One gets an excellent and clear view of the Himalayas from the peak of these hills. It has an altitude of about 2711m. It is a peaceful place away from the fast moving lives of the city. Pir Panjal Mountains, when visited during winters, are filled with snow all over and are a treat for the eyes! Snow is replaced by lush green grass in summers.
Return to Patnitop in the evening. Overnight stay at Patnitop Hotel.
