Levi To Offer Free Skiing In May

The leading Finnish ski resort of Levi has already announced it will offer free skiing at the end of its very long season – next May (2011).

The resort, which recently opened a spectacular new water park, expects its 2010-11 ski season will begin by early November, this year and that it will last to May 8th, 2011.

It has announced skiing will be free during the last week of the season, that first week of May. The resort operates 28 lifts including Finland's only gondolas.

Levi only receives an average 1.2m (our feet) of natural snow each year but its northerly latitude means that the snow that falls, stays. About a third of the slopes also have snowmaking cover.
