Hello Namita, Visiting Kashmir in the first week of July is generally a good idea, as the weather is mild and the landscapes are lush and green. However, it's important to note that July is part of the monsoon season in the region, so there might be occasional rainfall. While the showers can enhance the natural beauty of Kashmir, it's advisable to pack accordingly with rain gear and be prepared for some precipitation. In terms of snow in Gulmarg Phase 2, it's unlikely to find snow at that time of the year. The snow season in Gulmarg typically occurs from December to early April. By July, the snow would have melted, and the region transforms into a picturesque summer destination with blooming meadows.
