Snowsport Highland Holidays - Promoting Scottish Snowsports and Scottish Winter Holidays in the Highlands.....

Our own Ski School has been operating in Glenshee for over 25 yrs, and are Associate Members of Snowsport Scotland. We offer skiing and snowboarding lessons for individuals, families and groups.

Look out for our instructors who will be wearing sky blue jackets with "Snowsport Highland Holidays Instructor" embroidered in yellow and bright red ski pants! Or please call our ski school manager Alan direct on his mobile 07790 845517.

Our highly experienced ski school manager is qualified and trained to Alpine Coach Level 1. All our snowsport instructors are a mixture of trainee & qualified Ski/Snowboard Leader and above. These qualifications are recognised and promoted by the governing body Snowsport Scotland.

We cater for all levels of ability, from raw beginner to expert. We also offer advanced ski courses for the more experienced skier along with our Ski Guiding Service (subject to availability.)

Our instructors have had a long experience of teaching children as well as adults, and enjoy links with groups such as the Princes Trust Volunteers, Girl Guide Association and Scouts and Schools.

Tuition - Skiing or snowboarding in the Scottish Mountains is a completely new experience for most of us and tuition is strongly recommended to allow safe and smooth progression and further enjoyment of your skiing & snowboarding. It also aids familiarisation with the resort layout and surroundings.

Essential Clothing- Scottish Mountain weather is liable to change very quickly and you must be prepared. It is essential that proper clothing is worn which will keep you and especially the wee ones warm and dry. So remember to pack at least two or three thin inner layers with a wind and waterproof outer layer (not jeans!) along with suncream hats gloves and goggles.

• Always stay in control, and be able to stop or avoid other people or objects.
  People ahead of you have the right of way. It is your responsibility to avoid them.
  You must not stop where you obstruct a trail or are not visible from above.
  Whenever starting down hill or merging into a trail, look uphill, and yield to others.
  Always use devices to help prevent runaway equipment.
  Observe all posted signs and warnings. Keep off closed trails and out of closed areas.
  Prior to using any lift, you must have the knowledge and ability to load, ride, and unload safely.
