Adult Skiing

Group Lessons

Our group lesson timetable enables you to progress through our structured skill level system with other participants of the same ability. There is a maximum of 10 participants on each group lesson (1-7).

To be eligible for Open Practice, a beginner would need to complete level 4. As everyone progresses at a different pace, it is possible a certain lessons may need to be repeated.

Private Lessons

Private lessons are a good form of learning for those that wish to progress quickly or just want a re-assessment of their ability. More than one person can take part in a private lesson we just ask that the participants are at the same skill level. Shorter 30 minutes sessions are available for Tots skiers.

There is a minimum age limit of 4 years for skiing.

Open Practice

Open practice is recreational use of the slopes, without tuition, available to experienced skiers and boarders. Available in 1.5 hour sessions to suit you.

For the enjoyment and safety of all of our customers, anyone wishing to enjoy the main slope without tuition must be an experienced slope user who meets our minimum skill levels.

Therefore, you must be able to use the lifts, control your speed/direction, perform controlled linked turns and be able to stop.

If you’re a little short of this standard, have a look at our lesson timetable. We’ll get you up to scratch in no time.

Toboggan

Ride the longest Cresta toboggan run in Wales!! At an amazing 750m long, you don’t want to miss this exhilarating experience.

The ride starts at the bottom of the hill. Once connected to the cable your toboggan cart climbs 250m, where you can enjoy the panoramic views of Llandudno bay. Then the fun starts! You are disconnected from the cable car and then you control the cart all the way down.

The Cresta run is an ideal activity for birthday parties, corporate functions, group bookings or just an afternoon out with the family.

Restrictions

* Children under aged 4 cannot ride.
* Children aged between 4-7 years have to ride with an adult aged 16 and over.
* Children over the age of 8 must ride on their own.
* The Cresta run is open every day from 10am until dusk. However, the run is weather dependant and therefore calling before you arrive avoids any disappointment.

Tubing

Sno-tubes are a fantastic, fun and safe activity, and are one of our most popular features here at Llandudno Ski and Snowboard Centre.

Sno-tubes are large inflatable rings that can be ridden individually or linked together with other riders as you slide down the hill. They are agreat activity for children and adults alike.

We can organise sessions for large or small groups, birthday parties or private functions.

Sno-tube sessions are available every day. Pre-booking is required and all sessions are fully supervised.'
