Aviemore is Scotland’s number one winter sports resort with a full range of facilities and instruction for both sports. Cairngorm Mountain, in the heart of the National Park, has been providing skiing & snow sports for fifty years, and is still competing as a major winter sports destination!
We are very fortunate in that we have a second excellent ski resort close by. The Lecht is just 40 minutes drive from Aviemore and operates 14 lifts. More information can be found at www.lecht.co.uk
