Gulmarg

Hey folks,

I'm having a spot of trouble finding information on budget lodging in Gulmarg. From the looks of things I am not even sure it exists, but I am hopeful for a cheap month long ski vacation in February and staying close to the mountain is a huge factor in it, as well as the means for much more skiing.

If the budget lodging is nonexistent then what are the cheap options for travel from nearby cities? Do the houseboats they advertise still operate in the winter?

Any other advice would be very appreciated. There doesnt seem to be a lot of information on this gem.

Thanks,

GTS

GTS, I do not know why my last reply to you yesterday did not come in today. I said that in Gulmarg they have many budget hotels and they are really cheap in such a beautiful place. Be sure you take the Gondola up all the way to the top, stop mid way and get a potato patty at one of the outdoor cafe's, it is delicious. I stayed in Gulmarg for several years and it is a wonderful vacation spot. One draw back, the guy's do not know how to handle the ponies for the rides. Very crude.
