Z-Morh Tunnel

The Sonamarg Tunnel is a 6.5-kilometre-long (4.0 mi) road tunnel connecting Gagangir and Sonamarg, in the Ganderbal district of Jammu and Kashmir, India. It carries two lanes of National Highway 1. It bypasses a Z-shaped stretch of road, which used to be avalanche-prone and get blocked during the winter months due to heavy snowfall. However now the tunnel provides all-weather connectivity to the Sonamarg. It takes only 15 minutes to travel the 6.5 km long tunnel compared to hours over the previous zig-zag road.
