Skiing in the Himalaya Mountains tends to be something you only hear the best mountaineers in the world doing after they’ve summited a dangerous peak.
Where is there heli skiing in India?
You’ll need to head north of New Delhi, past India’s border with Nepal, to the regions of Himachal Pradesh and Kashmir where the western flank of the Himalayas rises above the land. Here you’ll find mountains that soar as high as 5,000 meters, which creates incredibly long ski runs.
Due to the elevation change, skiers and snowboarders in the western Himalayas can enjoy varied terrain that includes chutes, bowls, glaciers, and forests all on a single run.
Without the helicopter, all of that altitude means that touring to the top of the Himalayas is a very long day of trekking, and you’ll likely be exhausted well before you get to the top of your objective and descent. That’s why heli skiing in India is the best way to experience all the Himalayas have to offer.
