1. Learn the Art of knitting from Rongpa Artisans
(Dates: Dec 26 & 27) We believe a true New Year celebration in Auli should connect you to the soil. That’s why we’ve invited the skilled Rongpa women from Parsari village to lead intimate crochet workshops. Sitting in the winter sun, learning a craft that has been passed down for generations, is a humbling way to spend your holidays.
2. Sunrise Wellness Yoga (With That View)
(Daily: 7:00 AM – 8:00 AM) Imagine rolling out your yoga mat and looking straight at the snow-capped Nanda Devi peak turning gold with the first light of dawn. Our daily guided sessions are beginner-friendly and the perfect antidote to city stress.
3. A Christmas Cookie Session for the Kids
(Date: Dec 25) Christmas in the mountains should feel cozy. We are hosting a Cookie Art & Card Making session that is pure nostalgic fun. With curated ingredients and decorations, it’s the perfect family bonding activity before the skiing begins.
4. Get Your Hands Messy with Foam Clay Art
(Dates: Dec 28 & Jan 1) When was the last time you made something with your hands? Our Foam Clay Sculpting sessions are tactile, therapeutic, and incredibly fun. It’s a chance to put down your phone and pick up a new creative hobby.
5. The “All-Night” Bonfire Lounge
(Date: Dec 31) Forget loud, blaring speakers. We welcome 2026 under a blanket of stars. Our New Year’s Eve Bonfire is complimentary for all guests. Picture this: warm beverages, roasting marshmallows, soft acoustic music, and the crisp mountain air. It’s the kind of New Year celebration in Auli you’ll actually remember.
6. A Cultural Gala to Remember
(Date: Dec 31) Before the midnight countdown, witness a spectacular Cultural Evening. We showcase traditional dance and music performances that celebrate the rich heritage of the Garhwal Himalayas. It’s vibrant, colorful, and deeply local.
7. Skiing by Day, Karaoke by Night
(Date: Dec 30) Balance the adrenaline of Auli’s famous ski slopes with some lighthearted fun. After a day in the snow, join us for Game Night + Karaoke. Whether you’re a bathroom singer or a pro, it’s all about laughter and community.
