For a single day, exploring Pahalgam is something I would recommend. Head to Pahalgam for its impossibly blue skies and to witness the confluence of the Lidder and Sheshnag rivers. Also known as the 'Valley of Shepherds', you'll be visiting the ancient town of Awantipura, dating back to 855 AD and worshiping Lord Vishnu. Around 16 kilometres away from Pahalgam, marvel at the powerful rapids of Sheshnag river, before heading to the Amarnath Cave. Engage in a snow fight or two while you're here and visit the breathtaking Betaab Valley on your way back to Chandanwari.
