A Skier’s Journey – Dubai

Watch A Skier’s Journey – Dubai

When you think of ski destinations, Dubai isn’t one that often comes to mind. Home to one of the largest deserts on Earth, Dubai also has a thriving indoor ski hill. It’s a bit out of place in the surrounding 40-degree heat. Now a growing community of skiers and riders can escape the heat and ski every day of the year.

It may not be high on your list of ski destinations, but if you’re in Dubai, you have to check out Ski Dubai.

In 40 degree heat, in the largest sand desert on the planet, Chad Sayers and Chad Manley go looking for the one of the world’s strangest of ski environments: Ski Dubai. In the midst of a city of dizzying ambition, this ‘local hill’ climbs 60 vertical meters out of a luxury shopping mall. Inside the frigid, air conditioned space, they find a dedicated ski community of desert-dwellers, growing in the unlikeliest of places.
