1-day lesson
A full day on Gulmarg's nursery slopes
Here's a breakdown of what your day on the slopes would look like.
- 09:30 AM (Morning): Acclimatise to snow and set up your equipment — A designated driver will pick you up from your hotel in Gulmarg and drop you at our equipment centre. Our ski technicians will measure and fit your boots, skis, poles, and safety equipment. You'll then receive a quick safety lesson on mountain etiquette before heading off to the base slope to break in your boots, do some balance drills, and click into your bindings.
- 12:30 PM (Midday): Learn to balance, glide, and stop — Your instructor will help you make your first glides down easy slopes. Maintain an athletic stance with bent knees to absorb movement on the incline. Practice the snowplough wedge position so you can control your speed and stop completely and safely whenever you want.
- 02:30 PM (Afternoon): Enjoy a quick photo session while you practice turns — Practice your new skills and make gentle directional turns across the slope. We will shoot high-quality photos and videos of your runs. Training ends around 4:00 PM with a debrief, wrap-up, and transfer back to your hotel.
