Timing For The Skiing

The activity arena is open from 9 am to 7 pm. The perfect time for this thrilling activity is from December to March. To reach the skiing spots one has to take the Gondola that takes the travelers to a good height of almost 4000m above the sea level. The Gondola operates all seven days a week throughout the year. The timings are from 10 am to 5 pm, but the timing may vary depending on the weather. So it is advised to confirm the time one day before and then reach the spot accordingly. Carry ski boots, bindings, poles, helmets, gloves and ski suite equipment. One can rent them on the spot.

The mountain is divided into 2 phases and one can reach it by gondola-

Phase I - It starts from Gulmarg- which stands at a height of 2600m to Kungdori mountain – standing at a height of 3747m. On reaching here one can ski back to the base.

Phase II - It starts from Kungdori mountain to the Apharwat peak located at a height of 4200m.

On reaching one can ski down from there. The difficulty level of PhaseII is higher than Phase I.  For an ultimate thrill, one can head to the Shark Fin which is the perfect place for powder skiing and is situated at the back of the majestic Mount Apharwat.
