Overview

If you are travelling to Scotland to see the snow mid December to late April, this is the tour for you!

We will take you to the Glencoe Mountain Resort, where you can enjoy sledging fun for all the family, surrounded by the incredible views of the Glencoe mountain range and valley. Access to the resort is through a chairlift which has stunning views of the valley below.

    Please note: This activity is weather dependent. In very windy conditions the chairlift doesn't run so there is no access to the resort. In such circumstances, we will replace this activity with a scenic drive along the Glencoe Valley and Loch Awe.
