Morning all.

Mountain Railway and snow sports now closed for the rest of the day

Wind speeds are currently too high to run any surface uplift. The Mountain Railway will be open today with skiing available down to the middle-station via the Traverse, 105, and Cas runs. The M1 piste is open down to the crossover. The White Lady will be open later this morning when the machines are clear.

Due to the winds at Base Station level, our Tubing Slides and the Jumping Pillow are closed today.

Snow Level: 700m


News from the Slopes

We are currently open for snowsports every day snow cover and weather permitting. Lift Passes can be booked online or purchased on the day from the Ticket Office.

During the Easter holiday period we will be opening for snowsports from 9am 7 days a week. There’s lots of family fun to be had across the resort with our Adventure Play Park now open daily (weather permitting) along with Tubing Slide sessions and the popular Wooden Ball Runs.

Due to reducing snow cover outside the Ski Area, Funicular Touring Pass sales are suspended. Further snowfall is expected which may improve conditions. Our team will continue to assess things over the weekend.
