Snowfall in Auli: The 2025 Winter Forecast
Winter arrived early in the Himalayas this year. The mornings are crisp, the air is fresh, and the Nanda Devi peak is already wearing its white winter coat.
Late December (Christmas & New Year): Historically, the last week of December is the “Sweet Spot.” Temperatures drop to sub-zero at night, creating the perfect conditions for snowfall in Auli. The chances of a White New Year are high!
January: This is the peak snow season. If you are coming for skiing, this is your month. The slopes usually see heavy snowfall in Auli, blanketing the meadows in thick, powdery snow perfect for beginners and pros alike.
Surviving the Snowfall in Auli: Will I Be Too Cold?
This is the most common worry we hear. If it’s freezing outside, will I freeze inside the tent?
At The Auli Meadows, the answer is No.
We believe you should enjoy the snowfall in Auli, not suffer through it. That’s why our luxury Swiss Tents are designed for the harsh Himalayan winter:
24/7 Room Heating: We don’t rely on simple blowers. Our heating systems keep your room toasty warm, even when it’s -5°C outside.
Electric Blankets: There is nothing better than sliding into a pre-warmed bed after a day in the snow.
Hot Water Round-the-Clock: Yes, even in the dead of winter.
The “Meadows and Magic” Advantage
Snow is beautiful, but it’s what you do in the snow that creates memories.
Join us for our New Year Celebration (Dec 25 – Jan 1). The snow sets the scene. But the real magic is what we have planned:
Snow or Shine: Our Sunrise Wellness Yoga happens every morning at 7:00 AM. If it’s sunny, we do it on the deck facing the peaks. If there is heavy snowfall in Auli, we move to our cozy indoor lounge with glass views.
Warm Up by the Fire: Our All-Night Bonfire Lounge on New Year’s Eve (8:00 PM onwards) is the ultimate way to beat the chill. Hot chocolate, acoustic music, and the warmth of the fire—it’s the definition of “Hygge.”
Cultural Warmth: Dance warms the soul (and the body!). Our Cultural Gala features Rongpa artisans from Parsari. It is lively and heartwarming.
Packing for Snowfall in Auli: A Quick Checklist
To enjoy the snowfall in Auli to the fullest, come prepared:
Layers are Key: Thermals first, then fleece, then a waterproof down jacket.
Good Boots: Sneakers slip on snow. Bring boots with good grip.
Sunglasses: The sun reflecting off the snow can be blindingly bright.
Moisturizer: The mountain air is dry; keep your skin happy.
The Verdict
Auli is transforming into a winter wonderland as we speak. Whether you want to ski, build a snowman, or simply watch the snowflakes fall from your warm bed, this is the place to be.
Don’t wait for the snow to fall to book your trip—by then, other travelers will have booked every room!
