Overview
Located on top of the Zabarwan mountain range in the heart of Srinagar lies a historic structure known as ShankarAcharya Temple. The temple is dedicated to Hindu God Shiva & receives thousands of visitors throughout the year. Situated at 6,170ft above sea level, the temple is a historic architectural marvel overlooking the city of lakes. Although there is a functional road(6kms) leading to the temple which can take you  there in half an hour but taking the forest trail to the temple is a different experience altogether. Possessing the features of a Himalayan trek, the trail takes you through the lush green dense forests of the hill particularly enjoyed by the local hikers, birdwatchers & mountain bikers. The trail is well maintained & offers the occasional viewpoints of the stunning Dal lake & Srinagar City.
