Putakhan Gali
<p>It is not hard to understand why the pristine Lolab valley is acclaimed as one of the most beautiful valleys in Kashmir. It is bound by the Shamshabari Range, a cul-de-sac, which resembles the English wooded countryside and is famous for its deodar forests. One can find a number of passes in Lolab towards LOC, which fall towards the Kishan Ganga valley. Since Putakhan Gali lies in close proximity to the LOC, prior permission from the concerned authorities is required to visit this place. At present, there is a rough road that connects Kupwara over the pass with Jumagaund in Kishan Ganga.</p>
