Why join us?

Meet like-minded people who share your love of snowsports and the outdoors

Edinburgh Ski Club is a great place to meet fellow snow worshippers and outdoor enthusiasts. Our members are usually keen skiers and boarders but also take part in a lot of other activities including mountain biking, road cycling, hill walking, climbing and much more.

Expand your social circle and enjoy our fantastic events throughout the year

Our social programme is just as important to us as our snowsports activities. Come along to one of our regular meet ups which can be anything from a pub night, going to a local restaurant, cheese and wine nights, water skiing, our new members party, indoor climbing and many, many more activities.

Join the Club for exclusive member benefits and discounts

We have secured generous discounts with outdoor shops and suppliers, available exclusively to our members. If you have an active membership, you can check them out here.

The Club is also an affiliated club with the governing body Snowsports Scotland. Our members enjoy their member benefits which include worldwide civil liability insurance and discount lift passes at Scottish ski resorts.

Take part in fun-filled weekends away across the United Kingdom

We organise weekends each year with our annual winter weekend in February being the highlight. Many more weekends are often arranged informally through the network of members that makes up the Club.

More about our weekends

Enjoy exclusive holidays to some of Europe’s premier ski resorts at competitive prices

As a club, we organise up to three holidays every year in superb European locations. Many of our members also book their own holidays together; meeting other skiers and boarders through the Club means you will always have holiday buddies.
