Skiing

Savour the magic hour when the dazzling floodlights begin to take over from the dwindling daylight, and night skiing begins.
For those who have never tried it before, skiing under the lights is a delightful experience, especially in February and March when the evening temperatures begin to rise a little. But even in the deepest cold of January, night skiing is worth the effort of putting on extra clothing.
Flying down the hill on skis in a pool of light surrounded by darkness is a perfect way to unwind from a stress-filled day. Even the ride up the chairlift at night is magical, the lights of houses and towns twinkling in the distance.
Additionally, night skiing is an excellent way to get more skiing time for your money. Night lift pass prices are lower than daytime rates, and there are rarely any lift lines to slow you down. It's an experience that is well worth the price.
