Highlights:
Despite its exotic location, this is a modern, well-organized, and safe ski resort with friendly staff and almost guaranteed sunshine in a magnificent landscape. Thanks to the rental of jackets, pants, and gloves, it is also well-equipped for spontaneous visitors.Negative points:
Manageable selection of slopes, less challenging terrain, no natural snow, extreme temperatures.Description Sky Resort – Ulaanbaatar
Two chairlifts, two platter lifts, and three conveyor belts make up the lift inventory at Sky Resort. The longer of the chairlifts ascends about 220 vertical meters from the Khurkhree Valley and serves two intermediate runs as well as one black-marked slope. Thanks to perfect grooming, it poses no technical challenge, but it does allow for high speeds. The remaining six runs are all easy. The cold makes the snow so grippy that you need to use your poles to move forward on these slopes. All runs are illuminated daily until 10 p.m., giving city dwellers the opportunity to escape Ulaanbaatar’s smog even after work.
At the base of the slopes stands a functional building that houses everything snow sports enthusiasts need: a rental shop that also offers clothing and gloves produced specifically for Sky Resort in China, changing rooms, lockers, a ski school, a restaurant that, in addition to rather monotonous Mongolian cuisine, also features Korean dishes on the menu, restrooms, and a small 50-square-meter ski shop. Signage and staff are bilingual, Mongolian and English. Many foreign experts work in Ulaanbaatar, an important target group for a leisure facility that, until now, could only be found abroad.
