Doodhpathri is situated at an altitude of approximately 2,730 meters (8,957 feet) above sea level.
Doodhpathri, meaning “Valley of Milk,” is a serene hill station known for its lush green meadows, sparkling streams, and dense pine forests. The name comes from the milky-white appearance of the waters in its natural springs and streams.
It is a less crowded and peaceful alternative to popular hill stations like Gulmarg and Pahalgam, making it ideal for nature lovers, picnics, and short treks. The region also serves as a summer grazing ground for local shepherds.
