They offer a range of snowsports including tubing and tobogganing that both take on a festive feel on the run-up to Christmas. Tobogganing is currently hired out in groups of up to 6 for 30 minutes. Children from the age of 3 can take part and the sessions take place on their smaller slopes. Tubing sessions last for 30 minutes and are suitable for those age 8 and over. The length of the slope will be determined by the weather which can range from 50-100 metres. You can also have a go at skiing and if you’ve never done it before there are learn to ski group lessons. You can also book private ski lessons.

Their adventure activities include bushcraft courses and canoe tours plus family lessons. They run holiday camps and other activities include disc golf, recreational climbing, archery and kayaking. For the thrill-seekers, you can book family activity days which include skiing, archery, climbing, canoeing, kayaking, their zip wire and tower drop. Plus free, tobogganing for under 12s with a paying adult. These family sessions run similar to how a theme park would as you queue up for the activities that you would like to try and some you can go on multiple times.
