The government is also organising National winter games including Skiing, Alpine skiing, Snow rugby, Ice stock sport, Snow baseball, Mountaineering, Snowshoe running, Figure skating etc, besides, events like Christmas celebrations, New year and winter carnivals.
Assistant Director Tourism, Gulmarg Javeed Ahmed said that, about 6,000 tourists visit Gulmarg per day, but this winter season they are expecting to see 10, 000 tourists mark per day.
“We are trying our best to attract the tourists for the upcoming winter season. The Ski resort is ready and in coming days, many more events will be organized,” the official said, adding that “Kashmir should not be an optional address, but a must visit winter destination.”
