Stretford, Manchester

by | Apr 20, 2024 | 0 comments

Chill Factore  located in the popular Trafford Park area, only minutes away from the Trafford Center Mall, offers an indoor winter sports for all ages and skill levels.

 Since there is almost never substantial snowfall in the Manchester area and there aren’t opportunities for outdoor skiing and snow sports. When visiting  Chill Factore  you are not at the mercy of the weather forecast-it can be enjoyed all year round with a steady -4 degrees celcius and no added wind chill.

Chill Factore  offers skiing and snowboarding on the 180 meter slope at Chill Factore  is the longest indoor real snow slope in the UK. They also have a 40 meter long slope for beginners and offer ski and snowboard instruction options for adults, juniors and family sessions. There are also private instruction options and group instruction options.

The snow area covers 10,200 sq m-about 1,632 tons of snow. An average of sixteen tons of snow is produced per day.

In addition to the ski slopes, there is the snow park with downhill donuts (tubes) sledding, and the 60 meter luge ice slide. The beginner slope and snow park have twotravellators’ (magic carpets) to help get up the hill.

On the main slope there are two ski lifts suspended from the ceiling instead of from towers to maximize the ski area. The main slope is steep and there are some obstacles off to one side for those who want to practice on them. There were quite a few people practicing jumps and cool moves.

Ski rentals are included in lift tickets. Cold weather gear can be rented or purchased if need. Lift tickets are purchased by the hour. We didn’t have much time to spend when we went so we purchased a one hour ticket and got to enjoy skiing without taking up too much time or being very pricey.

There are great viewing areas for those not on the slopes. There are bars, cafes and restaurants on site. It is lots of fun to sit and watch the action while enjoying a drink.
