re: ski scotland

Very hit or miss, but I did read that a couple of the runs were open at the Cairngorns at the weekend, Glenshee has the most runs.
Normally very cold and windy.

re: ski scotland

Scotlands great when theres snow, avimore is a lovelly place but as previously stated its very hit and miss.

re: ski scotland

We used to ski in Feb half term and never had a problem. Very expensive so we now ski in Pamps the week before for the same price as 3 days in Cairngorms!!!

re: ski scotland

Skiing in Scotland is only for the rough and tough.

re: ski scotland

Skiied both the Cairngorm and the Lecht.....both very windy and snow depth variable. Went end of Jan and we had a fantatsic dump which provided the base conditions - unfortunately the wind caused the funicular to close at Cairngorm.
Drove to the Lecht (what a scary drive that was!!) and it was blowing an absolute gale but due to the layout you could use most of the runs - limited but fun.
Pricey though for a few hours

Cheers!

re: ski scotland

Cairngorms (with good conditions) or Vitosha for a weekends skiing, which would you go for?

re: ski scotland

Glenshee, its only a two hour drive for me.

re: ski scotland

Drove from ireland to ski in Scotland ,because the wife won't fly.I leave here at home now and i can afford to go on two trips a year now one to Bulgaria and usually the other to Austria .Enjoyed Scotland by the way but a crazy drive in a blizzard,sking was ok (Ben Nevis).Sorry but won't be back.
