Scotland Celebrates Good Start to 2026
Snowsport Scotland said the conditions have been “as good as we can expect in Scotland”.
Snowsport Scotland chief executive Iain Ramsay-Clapham said: “We should see all the mountains commercially have a really good start to their season.
“Last year, for most of the mountains they drew a blank.
“We often see the best of our conditions at the end of the season in Scotland.
“But to be blessed with these sorts of conditions now, in January, is certainly worth capitalising upon.”
