    Skiing in jock land

    Snow looks great, what's the easiest resort you can fly to from London, then get a train/taxi/car/bus to ? Or are they all in middle of nowhere ?

    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.

            No alcohol? I'd give it a miss then.

                Not when it's covered in snow, it isn't.

                    Good point. Fly to inverness and hire car. Thirty miles to Aviemore for the Cairngorms.
