Quick answerFrom Chennai, fly to Srinagar with one connection via Delhi, Bengaluru or Hyderabad; total journey time is usually 6–9 hours. Plan 6 nights to make the journey worthwhile. A mid-range land package costs about ₹24,000–42,000 per person, plus flights.
From Marina Beach to the Himalaya is about as far as a domestic trip in India goes, and the temperature difference can be 30°C in January. That contrast is exactly why Chennai travellers love Kashmir, especially for their first snowfall.
Getting there
- Connecting flights: we could not confirm a regular nonstop service from Chennai to Srinagar, so plan one stop. Delhi has the most onward flights; Bengaluru and Hyderabad also work.
- Allow a buffer: book both legs on one ticket where possible, so a delay on the first flight is the airline's problem, not yours.
Best months for Chennai travellers
- April–May (summer vacation): flowers and green meadows. Book early.
- December–February: the snow trip. Pack thermals, gloves and waterproof shoes; buy or rent heavy jackets in Srinagar if needed.
- October: clear weather, fewer crowds, good value.
6-night route
| Nights | Where | Highlights |
|---|---|---|
| 2 | Srinagar (1 houseboat) | Rest after the journey, Dal Lake, gardens |
| 2 | Gulmarg or Pahalgam | Snow in winter, meadows in spring |
| 2 | Srinagar | Sonamarg day trip and a relaxed last day |

Food tips
Rice, dal, curd and vegetables are always available, and many hotels make idli or dosa on request with notice. Kashmiri kahwa is a lovely substitute for filter coffee on a cold morning (we said substitute, not replacement).
