Your experience at Ski Dubai

A unique penguin encounter

Step inside Ski Dubai and discover a resort that brings chilly alpine fun to the heart of the desert. The star attraction of your day is a 40-minute session meeting both Gentoo and King penguins. With guidance from trained handlers, you'll observe penguins’ natural behaviors, assist with feeding and perhaps even gently touch these remarkable animals. The encounter is designed to be educational, interactive and mindful of animal welfare. Experts will be on hand to answer your questions as you learn about penguin habitats, conservation efforts and daily routines. No mobile phones or cameras are allowed to keep the session calm and focused on your experience and the animals’ comfort.

Snow Park adventures for everyone

When you’re not enjoying the company of penguins, make your way across a full-sized indoor snow park. Here, unlimited access lets you try a variety of rides: climb into a giant Zorb Ball, soar on the Snow Bullet zipline or race down the slopes on a toboggan. The park includes features like the Mountain Thriller, tubing run, giant ball, bob sled, bumper cars and the tranquil Snow Cavern. As you explore, enjoy a complimentary hot chocolate to help you stay warm and refreshed throughout the day.

Slope access or lessons for all levels

If you’re a qualified skier or snowboarder (intermediate level 2 or above), upgrade your adventure with a full-day slope pass that allows endless runs on the carefully maintained slopes. For those new to snow sports, choose a 60-minute discovery lesson taught by expert instructors. All equipment is provided and certified professionals ensure your safety and progress. Helmet use is required for all guests under 13 years old on the slope.

Comfort and facilities included

From the beginning of your visit, you’ll be supplied with waterproof gloves, hand warmers and fleece clothes to guarantee comfort. Secure your belongings in a personal locker and focus on making the most of your memorable day. A professional photograph is included, allowing you to bring home a keepsake of the wonders you experienced at Ski Dubai.
