点评:As a family we love a visit to Mendip Activity Centre every now and then. We've previously visited for Frisbee Golf and Survival Skills (both highly recommended) and this time we took our 8 year old daughter and her cousin for Halloween Tobogganing last October.
We booked an early morning session (individual spaces aged 4 - 12) before it got too busy and parking and check in were pretty quick. While we waited for the instructor the kids loved playing amongst the Halloween decorations - including zombies on a screen and fog machine. The theming was brilliant!
Once on the smaller slope our daughter and her cousin enjoyed 30 minutes of tobogganing to spooky music with a few skeletons hanging from above. There were several other children on the slope too, but it never felt crowded and the kids had plenty of space. Parents can watch from the benches at the top of the slope too.
Afterwards we made our way to the cafe (Alpine Lounge) for drinks and Halloween sweets (included in the kids ticket price) and for the kids to relax - 30 minutes is plenty of time on the slope, they were absolutely shattered by the end of the session!
Make sure to arrive in plenty of time for the safety briefing and wear long sleeves, trousers and gloves! Prices differ depending on session time (earlier and later slots tend to be the cheapest) Highly recommended.
翻译:我们全家都喜欢时不时地去门迪普活动中心 (Mendip Activity Centre)。之前我们去那里参加过飞盘高尔夫和生存技能课程(强烈推荐),这次我们带着8岁的女儿和她的表妹去体验了去年十月的万圣节雪橇。
我们预订了上午的课程(4-12岁儿童可单独入场),因为那里人比较多,停车和登记都很快。在等待教练的时候,孩子们喜欢在万圣节装饰物中玩耍——包括屏幕上的僵尸和烟雾机。主题布置得太棒了!
在较小的雪道上,我们的女儿和她的表妹享受了30分钟的雪橇滑行,伴随着令人毛骨悚然的音乐,上面还悬挂着几个骷髅。雪道上还有其他几个孩子,但感觉并不拥挤,孩子们有足够的空间。家长也可以坐在雪道顶端的长椅上观看。
之后,我们去了咖啡馆(Alpine Lounge),喝了饮料,吃了万圣节糖果(包含在儿童票价里),也让孩子们好好放松一下——在雪坡上滑30分钟已经足够了,滑完之后他们已经累得筋疲力尽了!
一定要提前到达,参加安全须知会,并且要穿长袖长裤和手套!价格根据滑行时间会有所不同(早晚时段的票价通常最便宜)。强烈推荐。
