Ropeway Planned From Pahalgam Base

In a major boost to tourism, authorities in Jammu and Kashmir have announced plans to install a ropeway from Yatri Niwas in Pahalgam to the picturesque Baisaran valley. Known for its scenic beauty, Baisaran—often dubbed "Mini Switzerland"—is expected to become more accessible through this eco-friendly transit project.

The ropeway aims to ease the travel burden on tourists, reduce the environmental impact of vehicular traffic, and offer a safer, more efficient route to the popular destination. Once completed, the project is expected to attract more visitors year-round, improving connectivity while preserving the natural landscape.

This initiative is part of a broader push to enhance adventure and eco-tourism in the region. Authorities are focusing on infrastructure that not only supports visitor flow but also aligns with sustainable practices. The ropeway will also help regulate footfall in ecologically sensitive zones, easing pressure on the environment. Tourism officials believe the ropeway will provide a significant economic boost by creating jobs, supporting local businesses, and enhancing visitor experience. With planning and environmental clearances in progress, the ropeway project represents a key step in upgrading Pahalgam’s tourism infrastructure.
