Perched at the foothills of the Zabarwan Hills, Nadis is situated right opposite Harwan Gardens. It’s also the gateway to the Dachigam Wildlife Sanctuary, which is home to the Hangul deer, Himalayan black bears, and breathtaking landscapes. If you’re up for an adventure, Nadis is the perfect base for the Mahadev Mountain trek.

Here, the food not only offers irresistible flavours but also a chance to embrace centuries-old Kashmiri traditions. In tune with the cosy feel of this resort, the dining experience is also intimate and homely, offering soulful, authentic, and locally sourced food. Expect Kashmiri home-style cuisine, cooked with ingredients from their kitchen garden or sourced from local farmers. The simple menu features a blend of saffron, cinnamon, cardamom, and cloves, as well as some locally-sourced dried fruits, nuts, and herbs.
