Indoor Ski Slopes
We can't all jet off to Whistler or St Moritz to play on the slopes and as we seem to be seeing snow in the south of England less and less often, why not search out some artificial stuff? A ski holiday can be an expensive business for a family so a taster session at an indoor slope can be a good way to see if any member of the family is going to absolutely hate it! From London, there are two venues to head to, neither of which are too far. Sno Zone in Milton Keynes offers a dry ski slope, snowboarding and tobogganing as well as a whole host of other activities in the main site which is called X-Scape. The Bracknell Ski and Snowboard Centre similarly offers a variety of ski, snowboard and toboggan options. If the idea of artificial snow doesn't grab you then jump on the sleeper train from Euston, travel straight to Crianlarich in Scotland and find some proper stuff! Sno ZoneX-Scape, 602 Marlborough Gate, Central Milton Keynes. MK9 3XS The Real Snow Slope at Xscape Milton Keynes is the UK's longest REAL snow slope. There is a 170m long main slope for seasoned slope lovers and a dedicated lesson slope, with qualified instructors for beginners. We offer lessons and coaching to suit all levels of ability and can even give you guidance of you want to try something different like freestyle or moguls. Family fun tobogganing sessions are the ideal opportunity to enjoy the thrill of the cold air while staying a little closer to the ground! So whatever your ability or your passion - there's 1500 tonnes of pure snow just waiting to be ridden! For après ski there is the Snow Bar and café where you can enjoy a unique view of the slopes and all the action. We hold regular music nights and themed parties and can even let you have private use of the bar and conference suites if you want to enjoy a bit of exclusivity!
