Snow Centre Manchester

The Snow Centre Manchester, formerly Chill Factore, is located in Trafford Park, Manchester. It is the UK’s longest real snow ski slope with a variety of activities on offer, especially for families.

Kids and adults can also have a blast in the Snow Park, where you can go sledging, race down on Downhill Donuts, or zoom down the Ice Slide, all on real snow and all year round. It’s a great indoor adventure that feels like a winter day out, even in summer! Gloves are compulsory. You can bring your own or purchase a pair on-site.

Whether you’re brushing up on skills or just having fun on the snow, the slope is accessible with a lift pass, which gives you unlimited runs up the button lift for the duration of your session. Choose from 1 up to 6 hours, depending on how long you want to stay on the snow. Lift passes include skis or a snowboard, boots and a helmet

If you’re new to skiing or want to improve, you can book ski or snowboard lessons with experienced instructors on the main slope. These range from beginner lessons, ideal if you’ve never skied before, to more advanced coaching that helps you refine technique, build confidence and progress at your own pace. Lessons are tailored to ability level and can be booked separately from lift passes.
