Skiing is an extreme sport that many people love to do. You might think that you could only do this during certain months of the year, but that’s not true. There are many places you can go around the world all year to experience skiing.
Austria
Go to Kaprun area for a non-stop ski time with friends and family. Bring your Rossignol women’s ski jackets when exploring to make sure that you’re warm and toasty. You’ll be mesmerized by the hills where you can ski all year round. Another good thing about this place is it’s not limited to skiers. Non-skiers can take on guided hiking tours in the vicinity of Kitzsteinhorn.
Another place in Austria you can go to is Dachstein where you can ski along its glacier. This is also the place of the international training center where cross-country skiers go. To add, Hinterlux, which is open 365 days a year, can be found here.
Switzerland
Don’t just visit the Matterhorn in Disneyland. Visit the real thing and you’ll be treated to wonderful peaks all year round. It’s also where ski enthusiasts go for training and to enjoy the Theodul glacier. The Theodul glacier offers majestic snow peaks with good skiing conditions.
Argentina
This country is not a popular ski destination, but you should still try and visit it. You would enjoy it since it has less crowd. You can go to Las Leñas for high altitude and impressive snow the whole year. It has ultra-dry powder snow, and the conditions are unique to Argentina, which makes it great for skiers.
New Zealand
New Zealand is a bit far from the equator, making it filled with slopes in two skiing destinations. These are Turoa and Whakapapa in Mount Ruapehu. Mount Ruapehu is an active volcano found at the southern part of Taupo Volcanic Zone. Though it erupted back in 2007, it’s still a go-to-place for skiers.
