Top Ten India Off-the-Beaten-Path Adventures

Ski the Himalayas

If you're in north India during winter, hit the slopes! St. Moritz it ain't, but then again neither are the prices, and the slopes at Solang Nullah in Himachal Pradesh state offer a great diversion. For those bent on serious adventure, a number of agencies can organize cross-country ski-touring/trekking trips through this spectacular region, and it's even possible to get in among the mighty Himalayan glaciers. Instruction and equipment rental is available for those who require it, at a fraction of what you'd pay anywhere else. Manali is the base for most ski operations in this region.
