Baltal

Baltal is a valley located in the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir, primarily known for its proximity to the holy shrine of Amarnath, a significant pilgrimage site for Hindus. It serves as one of the base camps for pilgrims during the Amarnath Yatra, which is an annual pilgrimage that takes place during the summer months. The region is characterized by its stunning natural beauty, including mountains and rivers, making it a popular spot for both spirituality and tourism. The route through Baltal is often favored for its shorter trek to the shrine compared to other paths.
