Skiing in summer 2010

Skiing in summer 2010: German summer slopes and ski resorts in South America

Indoor ski centres, artificially created “snow-free” ski slopes such as Monte Kaolino, glacier ski resorts and exotic ski destinations around the globe—in today’s globalised world, there are opportunities to ski all year round, including in summer 2010. There’s something to suit every taste. And let’s not forget: Germany and Europe currently have many interesting indoor ski centres where you can hit the slopes in summer 2010, too. Skiing is no longer dependent on the weather.

In summer, the most popular skiing destinations in Europe are the so-called “glacier ski resorts”, where you can ski year-round, including in summer 2010. One example is the Hintertux Glacier, Austria’s only year-round ski resort, located in Tyrol’s Zillertal Valley. In summer 2010, sun-seeking skiers and snowboarders at the Hintertux Glacier can count on guaranteed snow and powder conditions well into May. Anyone keen to strap on their skis will find beautiful slopes in the Zillertal. Skiing has been available at the Hintertux resort, freshly groomed every day, since 10 April 2010.

Indoor ski centres, exotic ski resorts, glacier skiing or summer slopes—skiers who can’t wait until the next 2010/2011 ski season without their favourite pastime will find plenty of opportunities to strap on their skis and hit the slopes in summer 2010, too.
