India - Ski Gulmarg

India

Seven days of unforgettable turns in in the foothills of the Himalaya.

I'm teaming up with John Falkiner, IFMGA guide and local expert for his eighth season here. Why should you go? The skiing is quite simply superb. Then there is the genuinely warm welcome from the locals, the exceptional beauty of the Kashmiri mountains, one of the highest snow falls in the Himalaya and the cultural interest and challenges of being in India. You’ll be with a great bunch of people whose aim is safe, fun skiing.

Ratio 1:6

Skiing Ability

You should be a competent off-piste skier with some ski touring experience.

Fitness

You should be fit enough to enjoy long days of off-piste skiing on whatever snow type the mountain gives. You should try to walk, run, cycle or swim as often as you can in preparation. The fitter you are the more you will enjoy your week.
