Himalaya
India
Kashmir, a mountainous region located between India, Pakistan, and China, offers some of the most spectacular and underrated ski terrain in the world. The Gulmarg resort, sitting at over 2,600 meters, is known for its gondola that climbs close to 4,000 meters, giving direct access to alpine faces, deep forests, and abundant snowfall. This area is increasingly popular among freeriders and ski mountaineers seeking untouched powder and technical descents. Skiing in Kashmir also means discovering a rich cultural experience, blending warm local hospitality, mountain traditions, and the striking contrast between peaceful nature and regional tension. Despite logistical challenges, Kashmir remains a legendary destination for skiers chasing wild and remote adventures.
