Founded in 1936, the Lake District Ski Club operates a 360-metre button tow on Raise, next to Helvellyn in the Lake District National Park. An hour's walk from the mines at Glenridding, Raise is positioned for the best snow in the Lakes and the tow gives access to a substantial part of the mountain. There are up to nine runs available, depending on prevailing conditions, the longest of which is almost a mile. Raise's ungroomed slopes provide for a unique experience, with a total of sixty days of skiing enjoyed during particularly good seasons. While it is an austere environment, we have a very cosy heated members' hut!
The Lake District Ski Club offers a highly cost-effective way of skiing. Membership is £50 per year when you pay by direct debit, meaning you can ski as many times as you like. Alternatively you can ski for a day as a guest for £20 when the tow is opened to all
