Top 3 Places in India for Skiing & Snowboarding
Although modern skiing has evolved from beginnings in Scandinavia, it may have been practiced more than 100 centuries ago in what is now China, according to an interpretation of ancient paintings.
The word “ski” is one of a handful of words Norway has exported to the international community. It comes from the Old Norse word “skíð” which means “split piece of wood or firewood”.

Skiing & Snowboarding at Auli
AULI UTTARAKHAND INDIA
It wouldn’t be wrong to call Auli the Ski capital of India. Located at 2,500 to 3,050 meters, in Chamoli District of Uttarakhand, the Auli Ski Resort is close to the famous religious shrine of Badrinath. The month of December heralds the beginning of the skiing season, which bears witness to the commencement of several ski festivals, along with the National Skiing Championships. Facilities of chair lift and a ski lift are available for skiers with the objective of conserving their time and labor.
The ski lift has been imported from France and is the longest one in the country. The ski slopes descend from 3,049 meters to 2,915 meters.
Auli is quite remote when it comes to accessibility, with the nearest railway station being Haridwar, 299 kilometers away and the closest airport, Jolly Grant at Dehradun, 273 kilometers away.
Snow-covered slopes aren’t just to be admired, but to be enjoyed. Skiing has gained popularity as an alternative sport in the winter months. At an elevation of 2,915 – 3,049 meters with five kilometers expanse of snow, Auli is offers perfect grounds for beginners and seasoned skiers alike. Coniferous and oak forests line the slopes. The peaks of Nanda Devi, Kamet, Mana Parvat and Dunagiri can be seen from the location. Its importance as a venue of adventure sports lies in its natural advantages enhanced by state-of-the-art facilities. The adventurous skier can go for cross country runs covering 10 – 20 kilometers. For the less adventurous, ski touring the glaciers is another enjoyable option.
What is Skiing ?
Alpine skiing is the sport of sliding down snow-covered hills on skis with fixed-heel bindings. Skiing is a recreational activity as well as a competitive sport. The skier attaches long skis, also called runners to specially designed boots and uses of ski poles. We can also say it’s the art or sport of gliding and jumping on skis. At Auli we have Alpine Ski Slopes as well Nordic Slopes. So we offer skiing and snowboarding at Auli.
About Snowboarding ?
Snowboarding is a winter sport that involves descending a slope that is covered with snow while standing on a board attached to a rider’s fee. Snowboarding have become youth sport that was invented in the USA and is one of the most popular winter sports all around the world as well as among the extreme adventure. Snowboarding, winter sport with roots in skiing, surfing, and skateboarding where the primary activity is riding down any snow-covered surface while standing on a snowboard with feet positioned roughly perpendicular to the board and its direction, further differentiating it from skiing, in which riders face forward. Moreover, no poles are used as in skiing, and the majority of participants wear not hard but soft- to mid-flexing boots for support. The sport developed in the 1960s and ’70s, grew in popularity in the 1980s, and became an Olympic sport in 1998. To die-hard riders and enthusiasts worldwide, including this author, snowboarding is a special kind of “medicine for the soul,” combining the beauty of nature, the thrill of competition, and the opportunity for self-expression. There is no single way to snowboard.
History of snowboarding
Snowboarding is believed to have originated in the United States. Though its origins are sketchy, and plenty of children and adults can claim to have stood up on a flat surface of some sort and slid down their local sled hill, there are several names, dates, and inventions that are agreed-upon highlights in the most common histories of the sport.
Auli conduct Alpine snowboarding Training.
Alpine snowboarding, often called free carving, was the most popular style of snowboarding in the mid-1980s during the infancy of the sport, when snowboarders used the existing infrastructure of ski resorts and the venues of ski racing. By the end of the 1990s, however, most die-hard snowboarders had rejected alpine snowboarding as little more than skiing on boards. It continues to share many characteristics with skiing, especially in its slalom varieties, where the emphasis is not on jumps and tricks but expert carving, often at great speeds.
Slalom racing
In common with ski racing, snowboard slalom races involve weaving down courses made up of offset poles, or “gates,” protruding from the snow, which the athletes must navigate around as fast as they can. These are considered technical contests because of the required tightness of the turns.
Each athlete’s run through the course is timed, and the rider with the fastest time wins. The spacing of the gates in a slalom race is relatively close together (25 to 50 feet [8 to 15 metres] apart), forcing snowboarders to make dramatically quick tight turns. As the name implies, the giant slalom is the same type of race but with the space between the gates roughly doubled (80 to 105 feet [24 to 32 metres] apart), compelling riders to execute longer and less-frequent turns but at faster speeds. The gates are still farther apart in the Super-G (100 to 130 feet [30 to 40 metres] apart), with riders often reaching speeds of 60 miles (97 km) per hour. The parallel versions of these races (the “parallel slalom” and “parallel giant slalom”) pit riders in head-to-head competition on side-by-side tracks.
Snowboard cross (boarder cross)
Snowboard cross (originally and still frequently called boarder cross) is an event where multiple riders (four in Olympic competition) race simultaneously down the same inclined course with banked turns, jumps, bums, drops, and other artificial features that test the competitors’ balance and control at maximum speeds. Collisions among the competitors are not uncommon. The first rider to the end of the course is the winner in snowboarding’s version of motocross racing.
Typically a field of 40 to 60 competitors will each take one timed run down the course alone to establish a seeding order and to allow competitive brackets to be created. Once these brackets are established, racers will go head-to-head, with the top three in each heat advancing to the next bracket. In this way, the field is narrowed to a final group of racers. In the final heat, the first rider to cross the finish line is the winner of the competition.

Trekking in Himalayas
Trekking in the Indian Himalayas
As our base is in Nandadevi Outter Zone We conduct Trekking in Indian Himalaya in Nandadevi Buffer Zone as well in Valley of Flowers Core Zone. We are expert local team who live in this region and are most familiar with all treks route, high passes as well new virgin treks and peak climbing expedition etc…
Indian Himalaya, the mountain range continues to dominate their lives as it has always done. Trek deep into the heart of the Nanda Devi, a secluded and seldom-visited region filled with lush forests, traditional Hindu villages and wildflower-filled meadows framed by a backdrop of sacred peaks.
Why is May Best Time To Trek in India Himalaya?
The Nanda Devi region is subject to the Indian monsoon. Both May and September are therefore ideal for gaining unsurpassed mountain views. In May, the climate is just about ideal: the long daylight hours, the rhododendrons still in bloom and the passage of the shepherds as they tend their flocks to the summer pastures make it highly attractive.
Cultural interactions can people expect walking along the trail in Nanda Devi?
Like villagers in most remote corners of the Himalaya, the people in the Nanda Devi region are forever curious as to why we have travelled halfway around the world to meet them.
For them, the sight of foreigners trekking for pleasure supported by an entourage of helpers and mule attendant’s contrasts with their lifestyle where they rarely travel beyond the confines of their immediate environment. Trekking through the villages provides an opportunity to revisit our values.
The Nanda Devi region is one of the few places where you can still experience traditional village hospitality – a world away from teahouse trekking.
