The Club

Weardale Ski Club was founded in 1963, and set up at Swinhope fell in a NE facing snow sure bowl above Westgate in Weardale. The club flourished and the original rope tows were replaced with two Doppelmayr button tows from Austria.

We now have a spacious two storey ski lodge and work shop, a snowmobile, snowblower and a Kassbohrer piste basher.

As the years have progressed our facilities have improved....When the snow comes,we are ready to use it. Skiing, Snowboarding, Snow Kiting. Even in reecnt years it is amazing the excellent days we have had on the fell.

What more can we say...All the site photos were taken in recent years, so judge for your selves.

See You on the hill.
