Skiing in Belgium???

Belgians love to snow ski!  However, Belgium is not known for World Class ski slopes, heck, they don't even have any mountains!  Belgians travel all over Europe to enjoy their favorite past time to places like the Dolomites in Italy, the Alps in Switzerland, Tyrol in Austria and Tignes France.  In fact, we will be going to France for a ski holiday this upcoming February, so keep a look out for that story! 

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!
