Description

Heli-skiing in India with Himalaya Heli-Ski offers the combination of the cultural experiences associated with the intrigue of India, and heli-skiing in the Himalayas amongst mega peaks that offer amazing eye candy and hugely varied heliski terrain. The grandeur of Himalayan heli-skiing is inimitable.

Himalaya Heli-Ski (formerly Himachal Helicopter Skiing) has been in operation since 1990 and offers guided India heli-skiing in some of the world's most spectacular and exciting ski terrain in the Himalaya, with exceptional quality powder snow.

Based in the town of Manali in Himachal Pradesh in the very north of India, Himalaya Heli-Ski has grown to become an international state-of-the-art heli-ski operation. The international guides are highly qualified, the Swiss pilots are highly skilled and specialize in mountain flying, and the agile B3 helicopters owned by Air Himalayas are maintained by Swiss engineers. All of this combined makes this Manali heli-skiing outfit one of the safest heli operations in the world.

As with all heli-skiing, down days do occur when Mother Nature is dumping snow on the big mountains. One of the huge advantages of heli-skiing in India is that there are plenty of nearby activities for down days, après ski time, or non-skiing partners. Just walking around the local villages provides plenty of sensory overloads, or you can ride around the mountain roads on a motorbike, visit hot springs, little temples, Tibetan monasteries, and quirky art galleries, or shop till you drop at the Manali bazaar. Or the small Solang Ski Resort is sometimes fun on a stormy day. The HHS experience isn’t just about the amazing heli-skiing in the Himalayas, but also the cultural experience of interesting India.

The safety of guests and staff is the primary concern of Himalaya Heli-Ski.

HHS operates with the lowest guide-to-guest ratio in the world (1:3 or 1:4). The guides are Internationally Certified and experienced heli-ski professionals. They have emergency medical skills and are experts in snow safety, rescue techniques and mountain travel and all have worked with heli-ski operations worldwide. The low number of guests allows them to provide a level of security not normally available.

Each guest will be given an avalanche transceiver and airbag and will be instructed on its use at the beginning of each week. The guides carry extensive rescue and emergency gear and are equipped with radios for communication with the helicopter and base.

Note that the danger of avalanches is always present. The conditions that create potential for avalanches are complex and incompletely understood. HHA guides are highly trained at forecasting and avoiding areas of high avalanche danger, but this is a constantly changing phenomenon, and you must be willing to accept all risks associated with skiing in remote and uncontrolled areas.
