Bhal Padri, Mountain tourism destination in Poonch district, India
The natural reserve spans across green meadows at 1800 meters elevation, featuring dense forest areas and panoramic mountain ranges in Jammu and Kashmir.
During the Indo-Pakistani conflicts, this location served as a strategic observation point where military forces established temporary camps between 1947 and 1948.
The site holds significance for local shepherds who maintain traditional grazing practices passed through generations while sharing tales of the mountain's past.
Visitors reach the location through a 4-kilometer hiking trail from Surankote, with guided tours available from May through September when weather conditions permit access.
The location provides views of both the Kashmir Valley and Poonch region, creating natural boundaries where diverse ecological zones intersect.
