The season was opened last week at the two resorts of the region - "Bolshoy Vudyavr" and "Kukisvumchorr".

A new panoramic restaurant has started working on the top of the Aykuayvenchorr mountain.

“The ski season in the Khibiny begins in late November - early December and ends in May. To increase the duration of the ski season in the Khibiny, a system of artificial snowmaking has been introduced,” the national tourist portal Russia.travel reports.

According to it, there are slopes for both beginners and professionals on «Bolshoy Vudyavr», as well as tubing, snowmobiles, ice fishing and other winter entertainment.

There is a training slope with its own lift, wide slopes with a slope of up to 40% for fun karves, a snowpark for freestyle and new school, and two virgin couloirs with incredible slopes await experts, Russia.travel notes.

On "Kukisvumchorr" you can rush on skis and snowboard with views of the picturesque slopes, slide on tubing or try freeriding.

Mount Kukisvumchorr is the venue for the world stage of the Freeride Khibiny Open Cup. There are also tracks for biathletes at its foot.

Here you can rent alpine skis, snowboards and snowmobiles, a cafe-bar is open, there is a children's play area, a left-luggage office, a medical center and parking.

Both resorts are located near Kirovsk.
