In winter, the mountain is a delight for skiers and snowboarders, with a dedicated snowboard park and downhill ski slope. There is also a chamber ski slope and a children’s toboggan run. The mountain is equipped with five ski lifts, five snow blowers and a snow tractor. The slopes are floodlit. Skilled ski instructors will help those who are still unsure about skiing. There is also a ski and snowboard rental service at the foot of the hill.

The hill is open every day when the weather is suitable for skiing.

The ski

hill “Lemberga hūte” in the West Latvian coastal lowland was artificially created using construction debris and unusable street pavement from the streets to be reconstructed. It is currently 58 metres above sea level, 240 metres long and is increased every year.
