English: A two-hour drive from Srinagar (47 km) will take you to acres upon acres of grassy meadow ringed by pine forests, towering beyond them, awesome and majestic snow-clad mountains. This is Yusmarg- close enough to Srinagar for a picnic, idyllic enough to make you want to stay for a few days. Here are walks of every sort - an amble along flower-strewn meadows or away to where strong river froths and crashes its way over rocks, its mild white foam earning it the name of Doodh Ganga. Further away, a beautiful lake, Nilnag, is cradled by hills. Nilnag is a beautiful lake located 4 km downhill from Yusmarg. The lake's water is blue, and thus, the lake is named Nilnag. The lake is connected to the passage, passing through the dense forests. The site is a beautiful picnic spot, and a trek of 13 km uphill leads to various beautiful tourist spots.
