This fee is often bundled with entry and activities, and it can be highly variable, ranging from Rs.1000 to Rs.2000 per person depending on the package/negotiation.
Basic Entry and Rides: If a standalone entry is allowed, the basic entry fee is nominal. The majority of the cost is for the attractions. A combo package including the highest Go-Karting ride and other main activities is the standard purchase and is usually priced similarly to the Adventure Resort.
Go-Karting Fee: The highest Go-Karting is often a premium attraction. If purchased individually, it can cost around Rs.400 to Rs.600 for a fixed number of laps.
Indoor Games: The park's indoor arcade games and video games are typically pay-per-play and require tokens or a separate small fee. Budgeting for a comprehensive package is the most common and simplest way to enjoy the park fully. (Approx )Timing:

Ideal Visit Time: The best time is the Late Morning (11:00 AM onwards) after the initial rush from the transport queue has subsided. However, be prepared for a full day as there is a time commitment involved in both the ascent and descent.
Best Season: The park is highly popular during the clear, pleasant weather of Summer (April-June) and the start of Autumn (September-October). It is also extremely popular during the Winter snowfall, though some outdoor rides may not operate.
Ascent/Descent Time: Be aware that the Pony/4x4 ride up and down can take a significant amount of time, especially during peak season when there are long queues for the transport. Plan to start your descent well before the 5:00 PM closing time. (Approx )Special Events:

Special Snow Day Package: When there is sufficient snowfall, the park often announces a "Snow Day" package, offering a special rate for the available rides and activities that can operate in the snow, like the bumpy 4x4 ride.
Holiday Celebrations: Like other amusement centers, the park is a major hub for large crowds on all major Indian holidays (Diwali, Holi, New Year's), featuring special lighting and occasionally themed decorations to enhance the festive spirit.
Extended Summer Hours: During the peak summer tourist season (May-June), the park often extends its operational hours slightly to accommodate the large influx of visitors who want to enjoy the late evening mountain air and the last rides of the day.Best Photo Spots:
