A CWH GROUP HOLIDAY TO
THE SNOW SLOPES OF
GULMARG. 25 FEB – 1 MAR
THE SNOWS OF GULMARG
Bright sunshine, a sea of snow, warm fire, hot kahwa, tumbling down ski slopes, rising along with the Gandola, wazawan, gossip and much more. That in nutshell is what this trip is all about. We stay in the iconic Highlands Park and enjoy the warm Kashmiri hospitality and their excellent lounge, famous for hosting the best adventure seekers from across the world, is where we spend our evenings. Morning ski lessons (optional), Gandola rides, and aimless wanderings in snow make it the ultimate chill out trip.
A BRIEF OVERVIEW
Gulmarg
The excellent ski slopes, brilliant winter Sunshine, the wooden cottages and sumptuous food make Gulmargone of the most sought after winter destinations in the world. A global village if there ever was.
Skiing
Almost nothing matches the sheer exhilaration one feels skiing down the slopes of a mountain. The balance it teaches you, the leg muscles it strengthens, the fear of falling it helps overcome are just a bonus.
25
FEB
Fly into Srinagar and from the airport drive to Gulmarg ~ 2 hours. Plan to arrive in Srinagar between noon – 1:30 pm.
Just before we start the climb to Gulmarg, we will shift into cars with chains on the tires and a thrilling ride on snow all the way to Gulmarg
26
-28
FEB
We set into a daily pattern of going out after breakfast and coming back at lunch or tea.
During the day the options are – skiing lessons, gondola rides or just wandering around in the snow. Or all three. We have plenty of time. Once we are back inside the hotel by late afternoon, we will more or less stay inside and chill out in the lounge.
As we get used to the snow, the cold and even skiing, we will explore more.
