What last season looked like

The 2025–26 season opened on 21 November 2025. Heavy rain between 17 and 19 December closed the mountain for safety inspections, and it reopened on 31 January 2026 with Jais Flight running from that day. The mountain paused again from late June 2026, and on 17 October the official account said it would reopen “once the weather cools”, with no date. The Jais Sledder has been listed as temporarily closed since January 2025.

This page changes the day the announcement lands. The winter guide has the prices, ages and what to bring once it is open.
