Top Places for Indoor Snow Sports in Hong Kong and Shenzhen
Nothing beats a White Christmas, but who says you need to hop on a plane to Japan or Korea to get your winter fix? Whether you’ve never touched a ski pole before or simply need an excuse to escape the Hong Kong heat for some fake snow fun, we’ve got you covered.
And while Hong Kong doesn’t have a colossal indoor ski resort quite like Shanghai or Korea, there are plenty of urban-friendly spots nearby to satisfy your cravings for winter sports without having to leave the Greater Bay Area (GBA).
From dry ski slopes and Virtual Reality (VR) ski simulators to indoor ski resorts and freestyle parks, these spots bring the thrill and chill of the slopes right into the city.
1. Snow & Surf
Think Hong Kong can’t do snow? Think again. With a space spanning 10,000 sq ft, Snow & Surf is the city’s largest snowboard and ski school, and it is home to the biggest team of instructors ready to make you look like a pro – or at least help you fall with style. What’s more, it’s also one of the world’s first indoor snowboard, ski, and surf facilities.
Their slopes are powered by two high-tech snow belt machines and built with patented “needle mushroom” material – the same stuff the U.S. ski team trains on in Salt Lake City. Whether you’re a “pizza” style beginner, mastering the “falling leaf,” or an adrenaline junkie hitting jumps and obstacles, there’s a slope for you.
A 'Park Ride' is only HK$448, meanwhile, a Private Training class is priced at HK$848, a group class is priced HK$598 per person, or you can opt for their credit packages, which start from HK$2500.
Location: 2/F, Shui Sum Industrial Building, 8-10 Kwai Sau Rd, Kwai Chung

2. Ski Tech Hong Kong
Ever dreamed of skiing like an Olympian without having to leave the city? Ski Tech Hong Kong makes it possible. Their state-of-the-art VR technologies are approved by the U.S. Olympic Ski & Snowboard Team, letting you master carving and technique just like the pros.
The VR slopes replicate the real feel of going down a hill, so you can stay in shape and sharpen your skills off-season. You can also choose your trails, tweak snow conditions, set up live races against other skiers and snowboarders, and even check your worldwide ranking. When you finally hit the real slopes, you’ll basically be a pro…or at least feel like one.
Safe, indoor, and suitable for all levels.

4. Huafa Snow World, Shenzhen
Newly opened in October 2025, Huafa Snow World is being hailed as the latest indoor ski wonderland to claim the title of world’s largest indoor facility – and with its vast snow terrain stretching 100,000 sqm – the equivalent of 11 football fields. It easily lives up to the hype and won't take you long to get there on the High-Speed Rail. Located in Shenzhen and close to the World Convention and Exhibition Centre, this indoor ski resort is highly accessible and connected to a mall packed with restaurants, making it the perfect place to ski, snack, and maybe even shop for a new ski suit all in one trip.
The resort features five competition-level slopes, including a 450m+ long run, plus snow play areas for families and advanced facilities for seasoned skiers and snowboarders. Year-round snow means you can hit the slopes whenever the mood strikes.
Off season tickets are cheaper, with prices ranging from HK$384 for three hours to HK$620 for unlimited time on all slopes. During peak-season, the unlimited Ski Pass for intermediate or advanced trails costs HK$1,100, with the full kit included: ski suit, boots, helmet, skis, poles.
