Varun Anchan Updated: January 03, 2014, 12:11 PM IST

OVERDRIVE brings you the opportunity to drive in some of the Mercedes-Benz's finest SUVs through slippery, tractionless snow-covered roads of Jammu & Kashmir. We are organising a drive through Gulmarg from 17-20 January, 2014.

Apart from being a life-altering lesson in how to drive in slippery tractionless conditions and survive, the drive will also introduce you to Kashmir in its full winter bloom. Here is a photo gallery that we have pieced together from all our previous visits to this stunning place. To register, click here.
