Omar Abdullah, Chief Minister, Jammu & Kashmir, formally inaugurated Gulmarg’s first luxury resort, The Khyber, Himalayan Resort & Spa.
Located at an elevation of 8,825 ft in the PirPanjal range of the Himalayas, The Khyber, Himalayan Resort & Spa, Gulmarg, is spread over seven acres in a pristine pine valley. This international class, 85-key resort, clad in timber and stone, offers breathtaking views of snow capped Affarwat peaks.

“The Khyber will be the first resort in Gulmarg to offer comforts and facilities that a discerning international traveller seeks. We have attended to every detail to make this resort truly unique”, said UmarTramboo, MD, Pinnacle Resorts, promoters of The Khyber. “Guests at the resort will experience luxury on a par with international standards and personalised service that hasn’t been seen in Gulmarg,” he added.
