Winter is coming, and the northern regions of China are already entering winter. One of the most popular outdoor activities during winter is skiing. If you ask about the most famous ski resorts in China, the answer has to be the four major ski resorts in Northeast China. Let’s take a look at these four resorts.
When it comes to ski resorts in Northeast China, Yabuli Ski Resort is a name known to all. It is currently the only national-level competition venue in China that is qualified to host Olympic-level snow events, and it is also a gathering place for many ski enthusiasts in winter.
Yabuli Ski Resort is located southeast of Harbin and enjoys a high reputation both domestically and internationally, earning the title of “Mecca of Snow”. The resort has complete infrastructure and diverse ski slopes. The entire ski resort is surrounded by mountains, with dense forests and thick snow, offering magnificent scenery.
Yabuli has many ski slopes, except for the Sunshine Resort on San Guokui and the New Physical Culture and Sports Commission on Da Guokui. The rest of the slopes are all beginner slopes. The Sunshine Resort has various beginner, intermediate and advanced slopes. On San Guokui, there are also beginner and intermediate slopes, allowing you to enjoy the snowy scenery while skiing.
Besides skiing, you can also engage in snow activities such as snow football and building snowmen. For those who want to improve their skiing skills, you can also enroll in a skiing training class, where you will progress faster under the guidance of instructors.
Changbai Mountain International Ski Resort
Changbai Mountain International Ski Resort enjoys a unique geographical location, situated in the golden ski resort belt at 41 degrees north latitude. It is influenced by the oceanic currents from the Sea of Japan and the Siberian monsoon climate, receiving over 1200 millimeters of annual rainfall.
The snow season lasts from November to April of the following year, spanning 6 months, with snow depth exceeding 1 meter. The snow quality is loose and flocculent, making it the only ski resort in China hailed as a “harbor-style ski resort that provides care”. It is a favorite destination for many skiers.
The ski resort has three well-equipped ski service centers in the town, Guosong and Kaiyue, providing services such as ski equipment rental, skiing services, ski videos, photography, dining and more.
Another exciting piece of news for ski enthusiasts is that the snow season opening day was yesterday, and the snow season carnival at Changbai Mountain International Ski Resort has officially begun!
