Rover Travels brings to you winter in Aharbal. You might wonder if the waterfall freezes in winter. Even during the coldest times, the river keeps flowing, and the waterfall remains active
Sure, there’ll be snow on the river banks and in the Aharbal village, but you’ll still see water rushing through the gorge.
If you’re planning to visit Aharbal in winter, the journey remains the same as I explained earlier. But, it’s smart to check the road conditions before leaving Srinagar. Heavy snowfall can sometimes close the roads.
