About Skiing at a Ski Resort in Gulmarg

Gulmarg is considered as the best skiing destination of India. This place is characterized by steep skiing slopes that are set amongst breathtaking and picturesque views. Due to these qualities, Gulmarg draws ski enthusiasts in large numbers every year.  The skiing area of Gulmarg is known as the Gulmarg ski resort. The Alpine slopes will offer you amazing runs for over two kms with an altitude drop of about 700 m. The Phase II gondola that takes you to the summit or ski resort is the second highest functional cable car in the whole wide world.

Every level of skiers are welcome in Gulmarg. From first-timers to professionals, Gulmarg ski resorts have something for everyone. There are multiple ski packages to choose from as well.  The two km trail is mostly for amateur skiers. For those in the intermediate level, there is a trail that is stretched over a distance of 3 kms, also called the phase 1 trail.

There is nothing to worry about your safety since there are a bunch of instructors who are always around you and are extremely alert. Beginners will be taught in small slopes and the difficulty level will increase only when you are ready for it. Initially assisting snow lifts are available for beginners.

Coming to the resorts and ski lodges, you have quite a few options to choose from, depending on the location, budget, view and the proximity to the ski area. There is also the official Indian Institute of skiing and mountaineering that is present in Gulmarg. Here, you can get assured professional training for snow skiing and have all the technicalities checked. The Institute has several courses to offer. There is a 14-day ski course that is available at Rs 12000 during the months of December and March. The accommodation is provided for ski trainees and also for regular tourists. The average cost of the rooms here is Rs 3500 a night.

Pre-booking of ski resorts is available in various websites that will give you a complete picture of the skiing scene over there. During peak seasons, it is advised to make a booking ahead of your journey to the ski resorts. You do not want o go all the way and be disappointed on your accommodation after all. Everything about the ski vacation that covers the guides, gondola tickets, ski fees, snowboard rentals, ski lessons and hotel accommodation can be pre-booked or booked in a package. Before you choose to visit Gulmarg you can also research about its yearly weather and snow forecasts to be prepared for your adventure well in advance.

    Ilajha's 7 days trip to Gulmarg

    Travel agent asked for tip, never ever had been asked for tip by an agent and when we denied after completing our trip ,agent said giving tip is not an big issue.Hotel Manager at hotel Grand Hill View begged for tip while he did not even lift our hankies ,no greetings,no welcome , nothing but while
    we were leaving he came to my husband asking for tip and when given 100 Rs ,he asked for more money saying give us more .As if our money is tree grown not earned. Pony ride charges were not mentioned in the itinerary at least must have been mentioned lum sum cost per person,so itinerary was not good. Coming back to hotel Rozan jay our room was good But at dinner, food was getting served as if you are having free food. New Manager walking in suit kept eyes on you while you fill your plate. And this behaviour was very unwelcoming , like seriously if you want your guest to have food as per your liking and serving capacity then do not even serve food. Also Menü varied to normal to good only when larger group checked in into the hotel, this is not right way. At least do not make your longer staying guests feel as nothing and less respectable just because they are not coming in with 5 6 persons. Gulmarg was great .

    Jamuna's 5 days trip to Gulmarg

    We had booked for kashmir tour package through travel triangle, we received quotes from 3 travel agencies in kashmir and we chose kashmir heaven. Fathima provided quotes for 3 star hotels which I asked to change to 4star hotels. We booked for 5 nights and 6 days. Vehicle arranged was good and driver
    was ok but did not act as tour guide, he was only acting as driver till end. Among hotels booked Ennco resorts, White water resorts and Khaleel palace were good but we were not happy with zaryab and cherry ripe house boat. At house boat it was worst experience and ghulam attendant was very rude, food was very bad, there was no hot water, bathrooms were unhygenic. We checked in at 8pm and wanted to spend some time in houseboat to enjoy night view but by 10 pm we were asked to go back to rooms and not sit in entrance area. Morning there was no tea provided and breakfast was provided too late at 9 am. Manager of Kashmir heaven Shahid had told us that he will refund for houseboat but its been more than 2 weeks nothing has been done. During our visit we were taken to only selected shops for purchasing, we were not given options to go to market or shop from different vendors. Though our trip was good and safe, we were not 100% happy with services, 70% was good hence I have rated 3 star.

    Gourimogare's 6 days trip to Gulmarg

    I recently took a trip to Kashmir organized by Kashmir heavens tours and travels, and it was an amazing experience from start to finish! Every detail was thoughtfully planned, from the accommodation and transportation to the well-curated itinerary. The team was incredibly professional and attentive,
    ensuring that we felt comfortable and informed every step of the travel. I want to give a huge thank you to our driver Sameer for making our trip truly exceptional. He went above and beyond to ensure our comfort throughout the journey. Sameer navigated every road with expertise and care, making the drives enjoyable and relaxing. He was always punctual, helpful with our luggage, and had a warm, friendly attitude that made us feel right at home. We couldn’t have asked for a better driver. Communication was smooth and clear, and any questions we had before or during the trip were answered promptly by Fatima. I felt like I was in safe hands throughout, which allowed me to fully relax and enjoy my travels.

    The first stay at House Boat was best of all stays because of theirs due care and hospitality. Second night stay at Ascot hotel was bad experience and third day they have changed the room some how better. Food was available in another hotel. Fourth stay at Pehalgam resort was good for location but
    lack of total services. Half of the time power supply was not there. Room was too small that extra bed placed on the way to washroom. But trip advisor Aiman services were wonderful and caring. Supported all the times. Can driver Nadeem was a best experienced driver with scheduled timings. Overall trip was nice except stay at Ascot hotel House boat stay and their hospitality
