Please remember you are free to call us at the office should you have any queries. For information on travel to the resort please see our Travelpage.

GLENSHEE (click here for Hotels & Self-Catering) packages include hire of equipment and daily tuition (3 hrs for beginners and 2 hrs for intermediates. If classes fall below 5 in number then beginners lessons will be reduced to 2hrs instead of 3hrs daily.

Glenshee is the most extensive skiing area in Scotland with 25 miles of downhill runs over four mountains and three valleys. The lifts, main facilities and nursery areas are situated right at the car park level and beginners have an added bonus of not normally having to purchase a lift ticket on their first day!

Glenshee offers something for everyone, and its spectacular setting will entice even the most timid of novices to explore the great snowbowls to the east. The resort is also well suited to the intermediate skier with 26 blue and red runs. For the advanced skier the famous moguls of the Tiger have been a rite of passage for home-grown enthusiasts for years. Snowboarding has also been associated with Glenshee since the beginnings of the sport with the first ever British Championships being held there.

Many skiers and snowboarders have said that when Glenshee is at its best, it compares if not surpasses many of the smaller European resorts!

For skiers and snowboarders alike, Glenshee offers a great variety in terrain - huge snowbowls, steep mogulled slopes, sheltered descents and relaxed runs. Glenshee builds confidence whatever your standard.

NEVIS RANGE and Accommodation (click here for hotels & self catering) packages include hire of equipment, 2hrs tuition and lift passes. We are unable to pre-book ski suits as these are hired on a first come first served basis direct from the resort.

Set in the mountains of Lochaber, Nevis Range offers a wide range of facilities. The nursery area including a small dry ski slope and the Snowgoose Restaurant plus very cosy Snowgoose Bar at the foot of the main skiing area are easily reached using the Nevis Range Gondola. From here there is access to a good range of intermediate runs with more challenging runs further up the mountain.

The views from the summit plateau of Aonach Mor to Ben Nevis are spectacular. It is here that you will find the highest ski run in Scotland, just below 4000ft. The opening up of Corrie Dubh and its Braveheart Chairlift has widened the skiing choice here including off-piste runs for the experienced in this snow-holding hollow.

Nevis Range offers great opportunities for competent skiers and boarders both on and off piste.

There are a limited number of small lockers for which a deposit is payable, unfortunately due to limited number these are not pre bookable. Skies etc can be left overnight in stands at the bottom station in the Gondola hall.
