Skiing

Beginners 

A great, uncrowded, resort in which to learn to ski. The Ruka ski school offers a package for first timers and new recruits will learn quickly under the expert guidance of the friendly, English speaking instructors and should be skiing on most of the runs by the end of the week.

Intermediates 

The immaculately groomed pistes in the whole area provide plenty of scope to work on technique, ideal for the established skier with beautiful tree lined runs and no lift queues. You will particularly enjoy the challenges of the red runs on the western side of the mountain.

Advanced 

Expert skiers will enjoy the steeper red slopes black runs on the north and western side of the mountain. There is also a freestyle area, mogul field and some exciting off-piste through the trees.

Snowboarding 

In addition to the pistes, enthusiasts can also ride on the three half pipes and a variety of jumps, hand rails and snow boxes in the snowboard park. Ruka was the host to the World Cup Snowboarding Championships in 2005.
