Altitudes and slope lengths are from skiresort.info; the figures published by the resorts themselves may differ. Season dates vary each year depending on snow conditions.
Yes. Most ski resorts have slopes suitable for beginners and ski/snowboard schools. Lessons, equipment and ski passes are generally not included in the tour price and are purchased separately; those who do not want to ski can spend their time on snow walks, sledging or local sightseeing.
It is not required; ski resorts have rental points for skis, snowboards, poles, boots and helmets. Rental equipment is usually not included in the tour. We recommend bringing personal clothing such as a waterproof jacket and trousers, gloves, thermal underwear, a hat and sunglasses.
At resorts in Türkiye and the region, the season usually starts in December and lasts until March–April; January and February are the months when snow cover is most reliable at most resorts. New Year and the mid-year school holiday are busy periods, so it helps to plan early.
No. The amount of snow and the opening and closing dates of the slopes vary each year depending on the weather; although some resorts support this with artificial snowmaking, natural snowfall is the deciding factor. We recommend following the resort's current snow and slope conditions before you travel.
Yes. The Uludağ and Kartepe programmes can also be planned for school groups; on overnight routes, group size, age group and dates are agreed together at the quote stage.
