Doodh-e-Pathri

Doodh-e-Pathri (42 km from Srinagar) is yet another bowl-shaped green-carpeted valley about 42 km from Srinagar. It is also called Valley of Milk (Milk means Doodh in Kashmiri) because it produces rich milk in large quantity after the cattle sumptuously graze the land. The shepherds herd their cattle to these meadows and thus produce rich milk. This area is also connected to Gurez valley on its north.

The river flowing between the high rocks, soft wind jostling through pine trees and meadows gives the visitors a memorable experience. 

It is a recent discovery in the valley covered with the green carpeted meadows.

The shepherds from different areas travel to this place along with their cattle and stay there for days together. 

Food and Accommodation:

There are few huts developed by Doodh-e-Pathri Development Authority and also a cafeteria, food courts and snack shops.
