People are of the opinion that only athletes can do skiing. To break this thought the HPTDC has taken initiative to extend the sport to common man. They have started conducting many courses in skiing at Narkanda. They have qualified instructors trained by the Institute of Mountaineering and Allied Sports. They impart training to students under a designed 7 day program from 10th January to March, every year. The training Gears and equipment too are provided by them.
They guide the students to proper exercising pattern so that they are able to do the sport appropriately and safely.
