Seoj Dhar Meadow

Seoj Dhar Meadow is a high-altitude alpine meadow located about 20-25 km from Bhaderwah town in Doda district, Jammu and Kashmir. Situated at approximately 11,000 feet above sea level, it is known for its expansive grasslands, snow-covered landscape in winter, and panoramic views of surrounding Himalayan peaks. Accessible via a steep trek or 4x4 track, it serves as a seasonal grazing ground and a popular summer trekking and camping destination.

Visitors can expect a vast open alpine meadow surrounded by snow-capped Himalayan ridges and dense forest slopes. The landscape is grassy in summer and snow-covered in winter. Access involves a steep drive by 4x4 to the upper point followed by a trek. There are no permanent structures, with open grazing grounds, seasonal shepherd huts (dhoks), and camping areas. Activities are limited to nature walks, photography and trekking in a remote high-altitude environment.

Traditional summer grazing ground (dhok) for Gujjar and Bakerwal pastoral communities and part of Bhaderwah's alpine pastoral culture
