Wilrijk (Antwerp) · Antwerp / Flanders · Belgium
Belgium’s newest modern indoor real-snow dome, featuring a 240m main piste, 50m width, up to 20% gradient, and full 365-day climate control.
Opened in Wilrijk (Antwerp) as one of Europe’s most modern snow domes, SnowWorld Antwerpen (originally Aspen) spans 12,000 square metres of real snow terrain. The facility features a 240-metre continuous slope with an expansive 50-metre width and a sustained 20% pitch suited for both aggressive carving drills and novice development. Chilled continuously to -4°C with state-of-the-art energy-efficient snowmaking, the centre offers modern platter drag lifts, a dedicated beginner zone, and an authentic Austrian alpine brasserie overlooking the snow.
