Palandoken Ski Tour (from Ankara)

This organized skiing tour departing from Ankara plans the Palandöken ski resort for you, from transport to accommodation. All you have to do is join us at the departure point; we take care of the rest.

About the resort

With its long ski season, steep and technical slopes and closeness to the city center, Palandöken is an Olympic-standard ski resort.

What is Ski?

Skiing is the sport of gliding downhill on two skis over snow-covered slopes. It progresses with balance, correct posture and controlled turns; with the right technique you can soon ski safely. It is one of the most enjoyable and beloved outdoor sports of winter.

Transport is included (from Ankara)

On this tour, transport is included in the package: a return service is provided between Ankara and the Palandöken ski resort. On multi-day tours, accommodation and the stated meals are also included. (For those who only want to ski and arrange their own transport, the “Experience” version of the same resort is more suitable.)

How does the tour unfold?

The tour begins with a service from Ankara. On reaching the resort your equipment is fitted; if you wish you take a short orientation with an instructor, then ski on the slopes. On multi-day tours accommodation is planned in advance; the tour ends with the return service to the departure point.

Who is it for?

The tour is suitable for every level, including beginners; those who wish take instructor support, those who wish ski freely. As equipment is included, there is no need to bring gear. Age and group conditions are shared before the reservation.

Equipment

All equipment is provided: the ski set (skis and bindings), ski boots, poles and a helmet. The equipment is adjusted to your height, weight and level; easy-to-control sets are used for beginners.

What to bring?

We recommend bringing a waterproof ski jacket and trousers, thermal base layers, waterproof gloves, a beanie, a neck warmer, snow/sun goggles and sunscreen. The ski/snowboard equipment and helmet are provided by us; dress in layers to keep warm and dry.

Why ski / snowboard?

Skiing and snowboarding are enjoyable winter sports that develop balance, coordination and endurance while working the whole body. Clean mountain air, snowy scenery and the freedom that speed brings make these sports far more than just exercise. Winter’s finest memories are often gathered on the slopes.

Best time and season

The ski season generally runs from December to the end of March; January and February, when the snow is deepest, are the most rewarding period. Weekdays are when the slopes are calmer and more comfortable, while weekends are the busiest. The exact date and time are set according to the resort’s snow depth and weather that day and shared with you clearly after the reservation.

What is included?

The package includes return transport (service) from Ankara, all skiing equipment, a lift pass, and — on multi-day tours — accommodation and the stated meals, plus organization/guiding. Details are shared before the reservation.

Enjoy the snow without any transport or accommodation worries. Reserve your place and join the Palandöken skiing tour from Ankara.
