The nearest railhead for Srinagar is Jammu Tawi (305 kms) which is connected to all parts of the country by Express trains. As with flights, train bookings have to be made well in advance. During the holiday season, additional trains operate to and from various parts of the country. Some of the important rail connection includes :
Jammu Tawi Express from Delhi, Shalimar Express from Ahmedabad, Jammu Express from Pune, Jhelum Express from Mumbai, Himgiri Express from Howrah etc
By Road
National Highway 1-A, connecting Srinagar with Jammu, is a good
,
all-weather road with several sharp inclines and hairpin bends. It is maintained
by the Border Roads Organization (BRO), which clears the road of any
obstructions resulting from natural causes like landslides and heavy snowfall. The famous
Jawahar Tunnel that connects Jammu with the Kashmir Valley across the Pir Panjal
range falls en route.
Srinagar being the only major town linked by road to the rest of the country,
all visitors make it their base, going for excursions to nearby resorts, for
fishing and trekking expeditions.
