Keran Valley is one of the most picturesque and serene valleys located in the Kupwara district of North Kashmir, near the Line of Control (LoC) between India and Pakistan. Nestled along the crystal-clear waters of the Neelum River (known as Kishanganga in India), the valley is surrounded by lush green forests, snow-capped mountains, and meadows that bloom with wildflowers in summer.
Once a single village before partition, Keran now lies divided between India and Pakistan, with its counterpart visible across the river. The Indian side of Keran has recently opened up for tourists, offering breathtaking views and an authentic glimpse into traditional Kashmiri village life.
