But you know you just don't want to ski once a year, right? So here in the Henegouwen Provence of Belgium they have "Ice Mountain"!
How cool is this!!!?? No we didn't ski here (remember we're going to France!). Stijn's brother, Dries, works here and provides snowboarding lessons down the 131 foot slope.
This place has skiing and snowboarding on real snow with 2 runs for beginners and advanced skiers.
We enjoyed a drink from the restaurant while watching people having fun on this indoor slope.
There are no chair lifts here. So how do they get back to the top?
Hold on to that cable and take a ride to the top!
Don't forget to check out "Where's Debbie" for more pictures!
Where there's a will . . . there's a way. I think this is pretty neat. Thanks for sharing Ice Mountain with us.
ReplyDeleteIn so many ways this makes sense. Hey, if you fall and get hurt you're not in the middle of nowhere and can get aid quicker!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by my photo blog today.
After the indoors ice skating tracks this is really taking it to a whole new level :)

How cool and what a great idea. I'm sure the Belguim skiers love it.
ReplyDeleteI can almost feel the atmosphere with your ethereal pictures. The dry ski slopes that we have in the UK are a much more tepid affair ... maybe something relative to the UK winter Olympics medal haul !!
ReplyDeleteHi Debbie! Stunning pictures. Have a great day my friend.
