Safety First: How to Have a Worry Free Skiing Experience in Gulmarg

No doubt, skiing at Gulmarg is an adrenaline high. But if you want to come back yearning from your vacation, and not yearning for a hospital visit, you must put safety first in your mind. If you are a newbie or have stood on slopes for years, some expert planning would help. Here’s how you can make skiing a stress-free experience at Gulmarg.

1. Get Your Gear Right

It starts with the right equipment. Whether you’re bringing your own or renting at the mountain at Gulmarg SnowKings, ensure it’s the right fit and in proper working condition.

Helmet: no choice. Protect that noggin of yours.

Ski boots and bindings: Don’t injure yourself, just tighten. You’ll need control, not misery.

Goggles: Trust me, you’ll be thankful for them when the sun bounces off all that white.

Layers and mitts will warm your body and hands. Frostbite is not something you’ll want to take home.

Good equipment makes you safer, and let’s face it, more comfortable on the hill.

3. Check the Weather and Terrain

The weather at Gulmarg changes very quickly. Always check what is going on before you go out.

Check the temp, wind, and visibility.

Watch out for icy spots or deep crevices. Don’t exceed your limits.

Stick to trails best suited to your skill.

Be aware of warning signs and avoid entering danger areas. You’re not here to cause trouble, but to have a good time.

4. Remember These

Hydrate and get sleep. Research has shown that you’ll ski longer, further, and have more fun.

Ski with a companion or group at all times, especially in an unvisited country.

Program emergency phone numbers into your phone, and locate safe zones where ski patrol can be found.

It’s these little details that enable you to enjoy the fun, rather than the stress.
