Make Travel Plans to Gulmarg and Leh for the 2024 Khelo India Winter Games

The eagerly awaited Khelo India Winter Games, in its fourth edition, will take place in Gulmarg, Kashmir, on February 2, 2024. All responsible departments are trying to make sure all facilities meet international standards, if reports are to be believed. According to reports, Jammu and Kashmir has become a winter sports destination thanks in part to the previous editions' success.

India has many sports than just cricket. And with that in mind, the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sports introduced the Khelo India project. Khelo India has been a game-changer since its introduction in 2021, encouraging a culture of sports and wellness throughout the nation. Although Khelo India's summer version has become well-known, its Winter Games component is gradually making a name for itself by showcasing not just the underutilized skills in winter sports but also the locations that go along with them.

Winter sports like ice hockey, cross-country, skiing, and snowboarding are the main attractions at the Khelo India Winter Games.

Fascinatingly, even though winter sports are traditionally linked with northern regions like Jammu and Kashmir, Himachal Pradesh, and Uttarakhand, a number of sportsmen from non-cold weather areas have been making waves in the sport.

There are several different sports represented at the Winter Games. In particular, ice hockey, cross-country, skiing, and snowboarding have shown incredible talent. Travelers from all around India and elsewhere have come to the games to see the heart-pounding sports, not just sports aficionados.

The Khelo India Winter Games is an excellent chance to exhibit the Union Territories of Jammu and Kashmir and Ladakh's rich cultural heritage and gracious hospitality. The fourth edition of the Khelo India Winter Games 2024 is scheduled to take place in the Union Territories of Jammu & Kashmir and Ladakh from February 2 to 6, 2024, according to the Sports Authority of India (SAI). There will be contests in seven different sports at two locations—Gulmarg and Leh—with 860 individuals taking part.

Gulmarg is now having a snowless winter, which raises questions for the winter games. For the thrilling Khelo India Winter Games, however, one can still hope for the much-needed (and timely) snow in Gulmarg.
