Skiiing in Scotland:
If it has snowed you can't get there due to snow causing the roads to be closed.
If it hasn't snowed there's no skiiing due to lack of snow.
It's the British way of doing things. -
Aviemore (cairngorms) roughly 2.5 hours from Glasgow by car, Glencoe about 2 hours, Glenshee (prob the best if it is skiing well) roughly 2.5 hours by car. The lecht is well worth avoiding for access and skiing being generally tulipe and I've never done Aonach Mor so don't know if it's any good.Originally posted by tarbera View PostSnow looks great, what's the easiest resort you can fly to from London, then get a train/taxi/car/bus to ?

I'm not even an atheist so much as I am an antitheist; I not only maintain that all religions are versions of the same untruth, but I hold that the influence of churches, and the effect of religious belief, is positively harmful. [Christopher Hitchens]Comment
