The Heaven For Skiers
Skiing is gaining immense popularity as an adventure sport. Sliding over snow- with the help of flat runners (skis)- is a wonderful activity for your memorable holidays. The sport is gaining huge recognition in Naldehra (literally meaning the Dehra or Abode of the Serpent God Nal) because of the presence of the mighty peaks covered with thick layer of snow, a perfect location for this sport.
