Cliff Top Club Auli
Welcome to "CLIFF TOP CLUB, AULI", a luxurious ski resort, located in the Garhwal Himalayas of the northern Indian state of Uttaranchal. At more than 10,000 ft. above mean sea level Cliff Top is literally at the top of the world, [being the second highest located resort in the world] and the only skiing resort in Asia which is located right on the ski slope.
Cliff Top Club hosted the National Winter Games and are now preparing for the SAF Winter Games next year and would be bidding for the Winter Asiad, 2018. A research survey by the Alpine Tourism Promotion Council (ATPC) has equated the slopes of Auli (second largest in Asia) to the best in the world. The ATPC is a pioneering governing body for winter sports in the world, based at Saas Grund, near Zurich, Switzerland.
The road from Joshimath to Cliff Top Club (17 Km) is a steep climb from about 5000 feet to 10,000 feet above sea level. The steep gradient coupled with ice on the road makes it unfit for vehicles other than a sturdy four-wheel drive.
In winters (from December end till mid March) the motor road from Joshimath to Auli is not operational due to heavy snowfall. Cable car is the only mode of transportation from Joshimath to Auli. The last trip of the cable car to the resort leaves Joshimath at 4:00 pm (July-April) and 6:30 pm (May & June). Tourists must reach Joshimath before the last trip of cable car. Tourists reaching late may have to stay in Joshimath overnight. Members visiting Cliff Top Club Resort have to alight (at tower number eight of the cable car).
Tower number eight is a high tower and the aged may find it difficult to use the stairs and walk down to the resort in snow. Visitors are also kindly advised to be careful with small children while getting down or climbing up the tower. The road to Cliff Top Club is a difficult hill track. If the guests wish to use their own conveyance to come to the resort, we strongly recommended a 4-wheel drive/Jeep/Ambassador car but not a luxury/small car. guests can also leave their vehicles in the parking area at the Rope way Park at Joshimath and travel to Cliff Top Club by ropeway to tower number eight with their luggage. The ropeway is Asia's highest and second largest, and charges Rs. 500/- per person for a round trip. The other alternative is to travel by road from Joshimath to Garhwal Mandal Vikas Nigam's Tourist Reception Center at Auli (14 km). The exciting and funfilled chair lift ride from there to Cliff Top Club costs Rs. 200/= per person for a round trip. Guests can hire a Jeep/Sumo from Joshimath to reach Cliff Top Club which roughly costs Rs. 500 (five hundred only). If in case, one misses the Ropeway, Guest can avail the night stay at Hotel Snow Crest, Located next to the Ropeway OR High Bank Himalayan Resort, Village Sunil, Auli Road.
Reaching Auli
By Road
(The best option is to) travel from Delhi by road. Delhi to Haridwar is 199 kms. on National Highway no. 47 (NH-47). The climb from Haridwar to Joshimath is 277 kms and takes about 9-11 hours depending on an average speed, type of vehicle, no of halts taken in between for refreshments, views ,etc. The ascent to Joshimath winds through Rishikesh, Srinagar, Karnaprayag, and Chamoli. Joshimath to Cliff Top Club Resort is 17 km by road or 4 km/20 minutes by cable car. Initial 14 Kms is a metalled road and the last 3 Kms is steep climb and bumpy, because of banned construction by the Border Roads Authority. This last 3 Kms is better negotiated by a 4WD / 4x4 vehicle that to during non-snow fall time. We suggest a stay at Rishikesh,Haridwar,Srinagar,Deoprayag,Rudraprayag to break the journey if required, where we have our own units / tieups. The Guests reaching Auli / Garhwal Region (Western Uttaranchal) from Kumaon Region (Eastern Uttaranchal) can have a night stay at Kausani, Ranikhet , Mukteshwar if they are coming from Nainital/Corbett National Park.
