In the Kannabe Highlands, you can enjoy more than just skiing and snowboarding during the winter, or snow season as we call it. During spring, summer, and autumn, also known as green season by the locals, you can find an array of activities to keep you active. Whether on your own, with your family, or with a group of friends come and experience the active outdoors together.
