Ski “A la Carte”


On a domain wider than the entire French Alps,
in the heart of the most spectacular massif on earth:
The Himalayas.

An exceptional configuration of terrain, with an infinite choice of slopes for all technical skills and physical aptitudes.

The longest possible runs (up to 2000 m vertical footage).

And for after ski:

The exotic Srinagar, capital of Kashmir, the “Asian Venice”

The comfort and the ambiance of the ancient Maharajah’s Palace (The Lalit Grand Palace 5*) viewing Dal Lake and its renown house boats.

Compared to the Alps, the avalanche danger is lessened:

In summer, yaks, sheep, goats roam the mountain (up to 5,000 m) maintaining numerous footpaths. These ensure a natural protection against avalanches as in Kashmir the ski is practiced on mountain pastures and not on glaciers.

Today, this natural equilibrium has all but disappeared from the Alps.


In India they say : « Kashmir is paradise on earth »

Kashmir, The Gods’ Valley” writes the Express magazine
