Kashmir, India's very own skier's paradise, is nestled amid the towering Himalayas. Kashmir is the ultimate ski destination, with some of the world's top ski slopes and magnificent alpine landscapes. The tour begins in Srinagar, the Jammu and Kashmir summer capital. You travel to Pahalgam after taking a pleasant Shikara ride on the tranquil Dal Lake against the setting sun. The route winds past lovely villages and lidder rivers trickling through verdant fields. Pony ride through pine woodlands to Baisaran meadows from Pahalgam. The true experience starts when you drive up to Gulmarg, which has been transformed into a winter paradise. In Gulmarg, take the world's second-highest cable car journey to see the snow-capped Affarwat Peaks of the Pir Panjal Range. The bird's-eye view of the valley and peaks like Nanga Parbat captivates you as the Gondola transports you to dizzying heights of 13,780 feet. Get your skiing gear and hit the slopes on the bowl-shaped Affarwat ridge. With grades ranging from beginner to intense, Gulmarg caters to both rookie and experienced skiers. Feel the adrenaline rush as you zig-zag down the powdery 14-kilometer-long slopes peppered with snowcats and chair lifts. The pure surroundings, snow-laden oak and pine trees, and chilly breezes stroking your face make it a genuinely spectacular experience. Stop for a breather and to take in the postcard-perfect vistas of the Affarwat, Kolhoi, and Mt. Apharwat peaks. In the evening, savor spicy Rogan Josh and aromatic Kahwa tea, as well as ethnic music performances. Nothing compares to dining in a typical Kashmiri home, listening to great stories from your host while sipping Kehwa, and watching snowflakes whirl outside the window. Finish your ski vacation with a sledding experience in the meadows. Roll huge snowballs to make odd snowmen and engage in friendly snow fights. Capture the memories in images clothed in traditional Pherans as the sun dips over the horizon, staining the snowy slopes in scarlet. Kashmir, with its ideal powdery slopes, oak forests, and spectacular Himalayan views, is an unrivaled skiing destination. The adrenaline rush of racing down pristine slopes and taking in breathtaking alpine views culminates in the perfect skiing vacation that is absolutely divine. This skiing tour offers the fun of your life, with a rich cultural legacy and ethnic Kashmiri hospitality.
