A. If you’re one of the skiers who just can’t get enough of the slopes and need a “skiing fix” between the winter seasons, don’t fret. While skiing all year round can be difficult and sometimes costly, it isn’t impossible. Here’s more information on summer skiing and how to ski all year round.

Glacier Skiing

While warmer temperatures are limiting year round glacial skiing, some glaciers still run during summer months. Read more about glacier skiing.

Grass Skiing

While grass skiing is sometimes considered a developing sport because it’s not very wide spread, grass skiing is certainly an innovational way to extend your ski season. Read more on grass skiing, including where to grass ski and grass skiing equipment.

Heli-Skiing

Heli-skiing takes skiers via helicopters to ungroomed, backcountry terrain. Read on for heli-skiing tips.

Indoor Skiing

Snow domes, or indoor ski resorts that provide a skiing environment, often offer year-round skiing. For example, the is Britain’s largest indoor snow slope and offers year-round skiing. ABC-of-Skiing has more information on indoor skiing and snow domes.

Skiing in the Southern Hemisphere

If you’d rather take a ski trip than a trip to the beach during the summer, than taking a trip to a ski resort in the Southern Hemisphere may be a great choice for you. Ski resorts in Chile, Argentina, New Zealand, or Australia offer great skiing from June to September or October.
