Other Areas We Feature

boardyeti also has a access to all snowboarding resorts throughout the world including Japan, Chile, Sweden, Bulgaria and Slovenia; wherever you want to take your next holiday let us take you there!

Going against our principles of direct/near access to the slopes we thought we should offer you alternative regions where you may have to use a well organised bus service...

Ruka - Finland

This is more than just a snow-sure boarding holiday, it's an experience in itself. Ruka offers boarding into late April, during December - February you will experience shorter daylight hours, although slopes are floodlit during this period. Slopes are generally uncrowded, so it's an ideal place for children aged 7 years and upwards to learn to board. Both sides of the fell are linked by chair lifts with a short bus ride to each other if you don’t fancy the challenge on the first few days. Accommodation is either in hotels right in the resort centre or log cabins dotted around the forests connected by the free bus, great for families with all ages of children. Families will love the short transfer from the airport and can take advantage of the numerous family friendly excursions to keep the children happy off the slopes. The husky safari is a real must and the younger children will enjoy meeting Santa in his secret cottage. The resort itself is very compact, with a few shops, bars, restaurants and a large supermarket so this resort is not recommended to those seeking nightlife and clubs.

Hemsedal - Norway

Famous for snowboarding events, Hemsedal is not the cheapest place on earth by any means, but the snow-sure resort is a clear winner and appeals to beginners, intermediates and advanced boarders. The slopes are accessed by a short transfer from the resort centre by a regular free shuttle bus a mere 3km away, the lift system is not all drag lifts with a mixture of chairs thrown in for good measure. During the winter season on various nights of the week, Hemsedal offers night time flood-lit boarding to make the most of your time on the slopes, off the slopes there is a host of family friendly activities, plus snowmobiling and ice climbing. The resort itself offers 9 or so drinking holes during the evening and just over twenty restaurants if you fancy a bite to eat. For youngsters during the day the resort operates a kindergarden and a children's club to keep the children happy whilst you enjoy the slopes.
