Kashmir in November

November is quiet and good value.

Quick answer

November is quiet and good value. Early in the month the chinars are still glowing and saffron season ends; by late November, Gulmarg often sees its first snow. Days are crisp and nights are cold. It's ideal for travellers who want calm, clear air and low prices, and don't mind packing warm.
