Snejkom – Indoor Ski Center

SKIING - SNOWBOARDING - RENTAL - CLASSES - SKI STORE - RESTAURANT

If you're looking for a decent indoor ski slope, "Snejkom" is definitely your best option. The snow is not perfect but this is a pretty good venue in Moscow for year round skiing. It has a beginner rope lift for the little ones, a towing lift and a chair lift. And they even have a small free style area.
Snejkom
You can just go for a couple of runs but there are also ski competition teams and a wide variety of instructors, some of which speak English. For us this was a great way to let our kids learn skiing as we varied private lessons with family fun visits.
 
You don't have to bring your own equipment as they have a decent rental office where you can rent all gear and clothes. And their "Austrian hut" style restaurant is not bad for a pizza afterwards!
Prices are reasonable with 700-1100RB for adults and 450-600RB for kids, depending on weekdays or weekend visits. They also offer subscriptions which are a good option if you plan on visiting regularly. A private intstructor will cost 1650-2000RB per hour, but don't forget to reserve an instructor up front. And try to go early as it tends to get crowded in the afternoon.
