I learned to ski here. As dry slopes go, it's pretty good. The
main slope is 400m long and that used to be Europe's longest, and is served by a chairlift
and a T-Bar. The top third of the longest run is very steep, and is very
interesting to navigate when wet!! The slope is floodlit and open until about 9pm. -
Oh Yes, by the way the "Hillend Thumb" is so named as the centre is known
locally as Hillend, and the thumb bit comes from the injury that you get when you fall on
Dendix!!! |
