SNOWSPORTS
AT MENDIP ACTIVITY CENTRE 

Mendip Activity Centre is home to a floodlit 165-metre snowsport slope surrounded by ancient woodland. Snowsport activities take place all year round in all weathers. Perfect for both beginners and experienced snowsport fanatics!

LEARN TO SKI OR BOARD
Skiing and Snowboarding are awesome - but don't just take our word for it, Britain has a host of snowsport legends including skier Dave Ryding and snowboarder Jenny Jones  (who first tried snowboarding here at Mendip!)

OPEN EVERY DAY
We're open every day throughout the winter: everything can be booked through our online booking portal including beginner group lessons, private lessons, and slope passes.

EXISTING SKIERS AND SNOWBOARDERS
"Recreational standard" means you can stop on demand, control your speed, steer and use the button drag lift. You are eligible to book a Slope Pass on the slope. To improve your confidence and gain more skills, check out Ski With An Instructor or Board With An Instructor. Or have a go at Mendip Ski Club, our weekly informal and fun ski club for adults and juniors

ALPINE LOUNGE ROOFTOP DINER
Refuel at the Alpine Lounge, our rooftop diner serving dirty burgers, hot dogs and loaded fries all with an alpine twist. It's lift-accessible and overlooks the slope. Why not grab a coffee and cake whilst you're here? Open to all!

MENDIP SKI CLUB

Mendip Ski Club is an informal ski club taking place every Thursday evening for any recreational skiers. Whether you have just completed our Learn to Ski Course or you are an experienced skier, this is for you. It is the ideal way to continue developing your skills!

There is a Youth Session for ages 5 to 16 and an Adult Session for ages 14+. 


 

SKI WITH AN INSTRUCTOR

A recreational ski session alongside one of our qualified instructors. These sessions are a little more informal than our course of lessons.

Your instructor will ski with you and be on hand to provide advice, pointers, demos and tips. This is a great session for a refresher ahead of a skiing holiday or for someone looking for consistent improvement.

BOARD WITH AN INSTRUCTOR

A recreational board session alongside one of our qualified instructors, a little more informal than our standard lessons.

Your instructor will snowboard with you and be on hand to provide advice, pointers, demos and tips. They will answer any questions to help improve your technique so you can get the most out of your time on the slopes.

 

SLOPE PASSES

This session is for anyone who is able to already ski or snowboard- we call this recreational standard. 

Book a slope pass at a time to suit you and practise on our slope. Book in advance to ensure our slope will be open and ready for use!

MIDWEEK MADNESS: SKI FOR 4 HOURS ON A MONDAY TO WEDNESDAY FOR JUST £15!!!!
 

PRIVATE LESSONS

Private ski and snowboard lessons are for anyone looking for the flexibility of private lessons rather than learning in a group. They are suitable for anyone over the age of 8. You can book up to 8 people per lesson.
 

MINIS SKI LESSONS

Our minis ski course is a fun way for children between 5 and 8 to learn to ski. Each lesson will need to be repeated to reach the required standard to move up to the next level. (Winter season only).

Choose from 90-minute group lessons with up to 4 people per group or a private 45-minute lesson.
