IS SNOWBOARDING IN SCOTLAND ANY GOOD? // GLENCOE MOUNTAIN RESORT

One thing we have always wanted to do in Scotland is go Snowboarding. We have never been in the Highlands in the right season though. So this year we made sure that we came a little bit earlier to hit the slopes. With such warm early spring weather though most of the resorts had closed.
Glencoe Mountain still had plenty of snow though and all of its runs open. The large carpark is ideal for van lifers to park up at night and hit the slopes during the day.
We were surprised at how good the conditions were for UK snowboarding. We are used to snowboarding in the Alps or USA and its safe to say that Scotland is added to our list of amazing places for winter sports.

ABOUT FINDING OUR ADVENTURE
We are Jonny & Hannah and we love to travel! After traveling through South East Asia and starting Finding Our Adventure we wanted to explore more of our own country and Europe. That led to a 2 year van obsession, we watched every video on KZread we could find and spent countless hours designing our own tiny home on wheels. Finally we were able to purchase our Ford Transit and spent 7 months converting it into our very own little campervan.

    What a feeling. I managed mirroring Hannah as she was snowboarding. It feels like I was doing it myself. I wish it was filmed longer. I am thrilled. Hope Hannah's leg is Allright. I am left with a feeling of excitement and joy. It is my takeaway.

    @@findingouradventure_ I really would like to. I did it twice, but it is much more cost effective to simply mirror Hannah. Doing it, and watching it feels the same to me. I suffer from a special willingful condition. If I see a limping pretty woman, I actually feel pain in my leg. If I see a lemon , I actually feel it's sour taste in my mouth. It extends further, willingly to various sensations.

    Thanks for this guys! I'm considering driving up there from Cork with my sons next month for midterm. We lived in Almaty for ten years and regularly skied up to 5 days a week, our boys were skiing blacks with us when they were 10 so... are the runs all very easy and short? I am aware it's not going to be the alps or whistler but is it really OK for semi advanced skiers? Looks good but runs, degrees of slope and elevations can all get a little skewed on a gopro. Thanks in advance

    Hey it’s definitely not the alps or whistler but we were really surprised at how alright it was. I think Glencoe has the longest run of all the Scottish resorts. The run we did the most was a blue that connected all the way down to the mason chairlift which was pretty good in length. The reds were closed when we were there because of ice, but we were there in March. The website will tell you what’s open and it’s length.

    Coming from someone who lived in Aberdeenshire for 25 years and snowboarded a fair few seasons in that time. Snowboarding in Scotland is it good? YES Snowboarding in Scotland is it crap? YES It's still home though and I love it.

    Haha I guess it depends how good the snow has been, we usually go to the Alps but we’re very squat how good it was and we will be back for sure! The one great thing is that they accommodate vans 🙌
