Skiing
Lochaber is lucky enough to have two ski centres – both very different in character. Though small by European comparisons, they offer skiing for all standards from beginner to expert. Scotland is a great place to learn to ski and both centres have facilities for complete beginners or those who just want to brush up on their skills. You can hire skis or a board and take lessons with our friendly English-speaking instructors.
Though we're not that high up, the ski centres and the surrounding mountains have proper ‘winter weather’. So, conditions aren’t always predictable and you have to be prepared for anything. The downside of this unpredictable weather is that you sometimes can’t ski for a day or two. The upside is that we usually get snow well into April. You can find real winter skiiing conditions here when it is spring everywhere else!
Remember that conditions change all the time. Check www.nevisrange.co.uk and www.glencoemountain.co.uk for up-to-date information before you set off.
