Associating Dubai with its fantastic climate and all-year round sunshine with a skiing holiday is probably not the norm for most people. However Dubai is full of surprises and the contradiction of having a ski resort in the desert was one that captured the imagination and this project was opened in December 2005.
Not only has it been a huge success but also it continues to attract residents and tourists in droves on a daily basis. But it are never too crowded as it can house up to 1500 people at a time. Dubai Ski Dome makes it easy for visitors because it provides all the equipment necessary for a day on the slopes. Full thermal ski wear and skis, sledging equipment & snow boards are just some of the equipment available to make this a great day out for all the family.
Ski Dubai is situated in the fabulous Mall of the Emirates. You cant miss it as it towers above the skyline providing 400m of slope and has the only indoor black run in the world. For the less experienced, (and dont panic because there are more gentle slopes to attempt) and for the novice, ski lessons are available on request. All in all, the ski resort offers 5 different ski runs of varying degrees and length. Snow boarding and snowboarding lessons are also available and for the kids, there is a sledging area which is also great for the young ones.
