Heli Skiing in Manali Himachal Pradesh

The picturesque hill station of Manali located in the Kulu Valley of Himachal Pradesh is no longer a tourist destination for just visiting monasteries and temples. It has grown phenomenally as a globally popular hub for adventure tourism too. In recent years, one of the main aspects of this adventure tourism is heli-skiing. In this adventure sport, you board a helicopter to get airlifted to high slopes and mountain  tops & you then ski down the slopes.

There are plenty of tour operators who organize heli-skiing for national and international travelers. One of the well-known ones is Himalayan Heli Adventures Pvt. Ltd. (HHA)

The HHA organises 1 week heli-skiing trips in Manali. The 'heli' part of the trips are aboard Bell-407 and/or Eurocopter AS350 B3 helicopters which are flown by experienced Swiss pilots & are maintained by professional Swiss engineers. The guides who take you on your expedition are internationally certified heli-ski professionals who are equipped with all emergency medical skills and are also experts in snow safety, rescue techniques and mountain travel. All guides carry rescue and emergency gear.
