 Poster: A snowHead
|
Anybody skied the slope there?
I was there last summer for digger related activity and couldnt really get my head around it. I think it may even have a snow cannon.
Not rushing down there to ski but I just had one of those Friday afternoon mental pop-ups!

I don't think they actually ski there, just slide

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

I seem to remeber reading that they had been refused retrospective planning permission, or something, and the place has or will shut.

If you are looking for a fantastic fun day out for all the Family, Diggerland is a unique adventure park where children and adults can drive real diggers and so much more
 And people told me the South was so 'sophisticated'

Its not far from here - never went last winter though...
It is a slope with proper skiing, snow cannon, tug lift.
I think the issue with planning wasn't the snowpark specifically, more over the whole complex itself if I remember correctly. But I think they're not overly worried, council would be mad to shut somewhere like that down from the loss of tourist revenue etc! Its just a sideline of the same company that sells diggers commercially

Think its weather depending - Check the snow park website I'm sure its on there.
Not overly long I know that much but its still a rather novel thing to have!
