The fun of skiing in Dubai is absolutely double than
anywhere else. It is simply because in this port city
you can go for both the sand skiing and snow skiing.
The equipment required for sand skiing is same as snow
skiing that is a snowboard. Ideal places to look for
sand skiing in Dubai is the huge dune on the road between
Dubai and Hatta and the massive dunes in close proximity
to the Liwa oasis.
Apart from sand skiing in Dubai if you want to go for
snow skiing also then again it is not a problem.
There
is an indoor ski resort in Dubai called Ski Dubai that
has become a must visit tourist place. And it is with
the help of this first indoor ski resort that snow skiing
has become a plausible option for recreation.
Ski Dubai is an excellent ski resort. It offers artificial
snow setting for skiers, snowboarders and tobogganists.
It features world's third-largest indoor ski slope which
is 85 meters high and extends over a total area of 22,500
square meters. Not only this, it offers skiers with
6000 tons of real snow round the year.
It maintains
a constant temperature of -1º to -2º C, even
when temperatures outside the resort rise.
Ski Dubai, the best skiing facility provider in Dubai
can accommodate 1,500 visitors simultaneously.
It also
boasts of a 3,000 sq. m. Snow Park which is the largest
indoor snow park in the world. It is a great fun zone
for kids who want to take pleasure in skiing in Dubai.
Ski Dubai offers all the basic gears necessary for
skiing in Dubai. It provides clothing, ski boards, and
even professional help.
There is not much carrying of skis as there is an escalator that takes you up to the entrance where you pick up your poles. Tip.
Check the size of your poles as people just return them to any old slot and all because the big label states 115 cms does not mean that they will be that length, someone could have dumped 125 cms in there.
The actual slope is about 400 meters long and turns a dog leg. There is an easy side and a harder side.
I haven’t skied on artificial snow before and didn’t really like it. There is a mist that hangs over the place and the visibility is not the best. If you have skied before you will get bored very soon.
The ski lift is sooo slow. It takes ages to get up. There is a half way point where you can get off before it turns the dog leg.
Apart from this, it also features
retail outlets, cafes, restaurants, changing areas,
and kids' playrooms.
Besides Ski Dubai there is another ski resort about
to make its mark in Dubai. It is believed to be offering
revolving ski slope, snow maze, ice slide, cable lift
and other attractions.
