Auli is surrounded by high peaks like Mana, Kamet and tallest of all Nanda Devi. The 270 degree view makes you forget the long and tiring jouney to reach Auli. You can get treated to great view of snow clad mountains as they keep changing colors every minute the sun goes down. This is the best way to meditate yourself. Here you will understand why the Sadhus(sage) came to Himalayas for meditation. The feeling of solitude and oneness with god and sitting right in the lap of nature will do wonders and you will be filled with new positive energies both mentally and physically.
Tourist attractions
Ski
Auli is starting to get popular among the ski-lovers. Though the long, tiring travel and unpredictable weather can be a bit of mood killer. But one must be lucky to enjoy snowfall and ski here. There can be snow storms, heavy rainfalls to spoil your mood and day. Though the GMVNL has imported snow beater it cannot give the experience of fresh snow. But all in all it’s an amazing and thrilling place for skiing.
Artificial lake
The world's highest man-made lake is at Auli, right next to the private hotel, Clifftop Club. The government has developed this in view of making artificial snow on the new ski slopes to cover up the low snow fall. The water from this lake is used to feed the snow guns stationed along the ski slopes and thus provide a good skiing surface and a stretched ski season.
