Dessu Daksum
Jammu & Kashmir
- Description
Dessu Daksum, located in the picturesque Kashmir valley between Sinthan Pass and Margan Pass, is a burgeoning hub for rural tourism. Nestled amidst high-altitude terrains and tranquil alpine lakes, it boasts rich natural resources including coniferous forests and medicinal herbs. Despite its beauty, the village's tourism potential remains underexplored due to poor infrastructure. Efforts are being made to develop rural tourism as a means to promote local products and services, create employment opportunities, and empower women. With a focus on eco-tourism, wellness tourism, and sustainable practices, Dessu Daksum aims to enhance tourist experiences while preserving its natural and cultural heritage. This approach not only supports economic growth but also ensures environmental and socio-cultural sustainability.
