Visiting and staying at a ski resort is one of the best ways to spend your winter holidays. If you want to, you can wake up and hit the slopes right away.
Skiing and snowboarding are the two main outdoor activities that people in that setting do the most. However, it is not uncommon for people who have never skied before to go to a ski resort for their winter holidays.
If you are about to go to a ski resort with no prior skiing experience, you have nothing to worry about because fun outdoor activities will be offered for sure. Are you interested in learning a bit about some awesome wintery pastimes besides skiing and snowboarding? If yes, just keep reading.
- Explore the whole area
Taking in the outstanding and dramatic views of the mountains all around is an activity that will help you connect with nature and appreciate life. Taking photos to share with your family and friends is a necessary step in order to capture this magical sensation. You should not let the borders of the ski resort stop you from exploring the pristine and beautiful landscape around you. By buying ski passes on Erna Low, you are granted access to neighbouring resorts. You can go from one resort to another by snowshoeing or getting on a ski lift.
- Snowshoeing
The best way to take in the mesmerising mountainous landscape is by wandering the mountains. This can be difficult without ski gear. Well, snowshoeing is an easy outdoor activity that enables people at all ages and all ski levels to enjoy nature. All you need is a pair of snowshoes and sticks and you are ready to explore the area on foot.
- Snowmobiling
Do you like driving? Have you ever driven on snow? Well, this is one activity that you must try. A vehicle that looks a lot like a quad bike is provided by the resort but it has a seat for only one person, the driver. Depending on the policies of the specific resort, a car driving licence may or may not be a requirement for driving a snowmobile. Most resorts retain a vast part of their area as a designated open space for snowmobiles to be driven there without paving a road or trail for them to follow.
- Sledding
A super fun outdoor activity for both children and adults is sledding. The resort will provide you with a sledge. You will climb to the top of a slope, sit on the sledge and grip it tightly. Once you are ready, you will push yourself forward and slide down the slope. The adrenaline rush is guaranteed! If there is the option of dog sledding, we recommend that you avoid doing it just in case because there are several instances where dogs were mistreated and abused in such operations.
