Overview
Experience a full week of snowboarding in Gulmarg, Kashmir with a professional local snowboard instructor. This 7 day package gives you enough time to learn, practise and build confidence on the slopes.
You ride alongside your instructor from 10:00 AM to 3:30 PM daily, with coaching pitched at the level you actually arrive at rather than a fixed syllabus.
The week builds toward the last day, when the gondola carries you up to Kongdoori for a long descent back down toward the base.
