In winter, Gulmarg acquires a new persona - that of the country's premier skiing resorts. Skiing, to many who watch it on TV, seems like a very elitist sport, requiring a high level of training and expensive equipment. They are surprised, when they visit Gulmarg for a day's expedition to "see the snow", that others with the same level of physical fitness and training are skiing down slopes. Gulmarg is the ultimate beginner's skiing resort. One doesn't requite a heavy woolen wardrobe - slacks or a Salwar Kameez will do fine. In Gulmarg one will also be able to drift to one of the many Ski shops and hire skis, sticks and goggles. Just find yourself a ski instructor and set off down a slope. | | | |
| Heliskiing | | |
| Gulmarg Heliski is a partnership between local Kashmir mountain guide Billa Bakshi and New Zealand ski industry businessman Martin Jones. With experienced international mountain guides, a Squirrel B3 helicopter, and a private helicopter base at our hotel – Gulmarg Heliski is proud to offer heliski and snowboard clients exclusive access to the PIR PANJAL RANGE – the very best Himalayan powder that Kashmir has to offer. In 2004, construction of the world’s highest gondola tele-cabine gave big mountain free-riders access to the 4,000m ridge of Mount Apharwat, above Gulmarg Ski Village.
