Situated 112 kms from Jammu, Patnitop is a relatively unknown tourist spot, compared to the other resorts in the state. As this place has not been exposed too much to the tourists, it's beauty is unmatched. This hill resort is perched on a beautiful plateau, enveloped by thickly wooded forests. Patnitop offers beautiful picnic spots, peaceful walks and breathtaking views of the mountainscape of the Chenab basin.

In winter, the resort is generally covered with a thick mantle of snow, thus providing opportunities for various snow games including skiing. It is the best developed tourist spot of Jammu and is second to none in its natural charm, climate, pine forests and lush green cover.

Picturesquely situated at a high altitude, there are many pleasant walks around this popular hill station. Patnitop is a good starting place for many short or longer treks into the nearby mountains. An attractive one-day walk is to Shiva Garh, about 11-km from Patnitop at an altitude of almost 3,500 metres. There are three, gushing, ice-cold freshwater springs in the area, which are said to have medicinal properties.
