Snowsports Opened 7 December 2019

Our Snowsports opening times will be 9.30am to 3.30pm  using factory made snow for a beginner area only (there will be limited skiing)  with the lower car park tow operating. . Keep an eye out on our web site and Facebook page for regular operations updates and news of all the events and activities we have planned at Cairngorm Mountain for the forthcoming season. 

Cairngorm Mountain has been offering snowsports for over 50 years. We offer 30km of ski runs, 10 lifts, a fully maintained freestyle park. The snowsports season typically runs from December through until April, but this varies from year to year depending on weather. You don’t have to have your own ski or snowboard equipment either, because you can hire everything you need with us.

Please note the funicular is presently not operating

From beginners to experts

Experts and intermediates alike will feel right at home on our classic black and red runs, whilst beginners will love the snow sure ‘top basin’ area which provide long green beginner runs perfect for building your skills and confidence! There’s nothing quite like the first time tackling Cairngorm from the top to base and getting that accomplished feeling.
