The Ultimate Guide to Skiing in Scotland

One ski destination that British skiers have always had a great interest in is Scotland, but criminally few of us have actually skied there ourselves.

However, with recent events meaning the situation with international travel remains uncertain, there has been a surge in demand for information on skiing in Scotland. But just how plausible an alternative is this to the Alps? While you definitely shouldn’t be expecting 2000 metre peaks, skiing in Scotland has its own unique draw, with a lot of winter activities and some beautiful landscapes. It has five distinct mountain centres; Cairngorm, Glencoe, Glenshee, Nevis Range and the Lecht, each with its own distinct personality. Watch on to find out more!

Of course, local and national travel advice and restrictions must be followed when it comes to travelling within the UK this winter, so do check before you plan to visit Scotland this year.

However, Scotland certainly won't be going anywhere and whether it's this winter, next winter, or even the winter after that, we'd definitely suggest putting skiing in Scotland on your list.
