The Z-Morh Tunnel is a 6.5 km, two-lane road tunnel connecting Gagangair to Sonamarg in the Ganderbal district of Jammu and Kashmir, northern India. Its name derives from the Z-shaped stretch of road it replaces ("Z-Morh" means "Z-turn" in English). Previously, the road was prone to avalanches and would often be blocked during winter due to heavy snowfall. The tunnel now ensures all-weather connectivity to the Sonamarg tourist town. Travel through the tunnel takes just 15 minutes, significantly reducing the time compared to the hours it took to navigate the zig-zag road over the hills.
Modiji inaugurated the Z-Morh tunnel in Sonamarg, J&K on 2025-01-13.
