It’s a cool place to be, alright. -5ºC cool.
The temperature inside the snow dome is on average, around -5ºC. Warm suitable clothing is required. If you do not have any you can hire or purchase these from Snowplanet.
To ensure you get the best experience at Snowplanet, here’s a list of equipment and clothing to get you started:
- Helmets
(compulsory for all skiers and snowboarders) - Wristguards
- Waterproof gloves
- Waterproof jackets & pants
For sale at BASE retail:
- Beanies and socks
- Warm layers of clothing under your waterproof layer
- Goggles
A place for all.
No matter what your skill level is, we’ve got a place for you.
For First Timer’s and absolute Beginners, we have our Beginner’s area, serviced by a 70m ski mat. If you’re still not sure about your skill level or if you’ve never skiied or snowboarded before, we highly recommend booking a lesson.
If you’re confident on the snow, let the Poma lift take you up to the top!
And, for our advanced riders and jibbers our terrain park changes every three to five weeks. Check out our upcoming terrain park plans!
