Overview
Itinerary
Arrival in Srinagar — Transfer to Gulmarg & Evening at Leisure
Arrive at Srinagar Airport/railhead and meet our representative. Enjoy a scenic drive (approx 1.5–2 hours) to Gulmarg, passing willow-lined valleys and rushing streams. Check in to your hotel/resort in Gulmarg. Spend the evening acclimatizing with a stroll around the Gulmarg market and the famous Gulmarg Golf Course (winter views). Tip: Keep warm layers handy — Gulmarg is at high altitude and temperatures fall quickly after sunset.
Gondola Ride to Apharwat & Introductory Ski Session
After breakfast, take the iconic Gulmarg Gondola. Enjoy Phase 1 and opt for Phase 2 (subject to weather and availability) to reach Apharwat Peak. Spend the day with a guided skiing introduction — learn basics from certified instructors, practice on gentle slopes, and explore snowfields. Capture sweeping views of the Zanskar Range and the surrounding meadows. Important: Gondola Phase 2 may operate on a weather-dependent schedule; bring photo ID for gondola tickets.
Full Day Skiing, Snow Activities & Meadows Exploration
Dedicate a full day to skiing or snowboarding (advance rental available). Alternate activities include snowshoeing, tobogganing, or a short trek to Khilanmarg and the scenic Gulmarg Meadows. Enjoy lunch at a mountain café (own expense) and relax in the late afternoon at the resort. Pro-tip: Book a private instructor for faster progress; advance booking in peak season is recommended.
Checkout & Transfer to Srinagar — Optional Dal Lake Shikara Ride
After breakfast, check out and drive back to Srinagar. If time permits (based on flight/train schedule), enjoy a serene Shikara ride on Dal Lake, visit the floating gardens and browse local handicrafts at the Lal Chowk area before your drop at Srinagar Airport/railhead. End of the Gulmarg weekend skiing getaway. Note: Flight timings determine whether a Shikara ride can be included; please inform us of your departure details in advance.
