A First-Timer’s Guide to Skiing in Korea

Alpensia buying powder

Many thanks for this useful and attention-grabbing publish. I realized a great deal from you. How much time have you been into saunas? I was so excited to see the ski resort while we were walking to the Ocean water theme park. It's beautiful, isn't it? It was New Year today, also another exciting day. It would be a day full of water and ski fun at the Alpensia Resort, which is the venue for Winter Olympic in South Korea. We checked out the Class hotel early in the morning after breakfast for our next destination in PyeongChang, Gangwon-do. The tour guide arranged us to drop by the shop half way to get our ski clothes, gloves and goggles prior arriving at Alpensia Resort. There were not included in the tour package and it cost about 50, won for ski jacket and salopette rental, 10, won for goggles rental and 15, won for buying a pair of waterproof skiing gloves. I learnt that the Alpensia ski resort also offered gear rental at a slightly cheaper rate. Of course, I believe the tour agent has their reasons to engage this shop for the rental, which we found out later. I was extremely excited wearing the ski clothes on the bus moving to the ski resort. It is like a thick wind breaker keeping me warm. It was so chilly at the resort; I quickly picked up my luggage and practically ran to the hotel lobby. I brought a big bag filled with my swim gear, toiletries, hair dryer, skin care, towel and slippers to the Ocean water theme park. Hmm… did I miss anything? Guess not! This is the snapshot I got from Alpensia official website. See the red circle in the picture? It's part of the lazy pool extended to exterior zone where I experienced snowing for the first time in life. We were each given an entrance ticket with a number for our locker. As we entered to the water theme park, we were told to take off our shoes and place them in the locker. After passing through the powder room, there was another locker room for your belongings. I was warned earlier to not over-react for seeing what I saw here, nothing on everyone. So, I had to follow the custom and acted cool with it. After changing the swim suit, I walked happily to the indoor swimming pool, which was at the lower ground floor. The indoor pools include lazy pool, wave pool, aqua pool or hot pool, slides, aqua play pool and kids pool both for kids. The lazy pool allowed us to float on a tube that was provided free of charge and it connected to the exterior zone, which I saw snow falling on my head while the rest of my body was soaking in the warm water. It was a fantastic experience and I wish I could have some champagne in the pool to celebrate this great moment! Somehow, the outdoor pool was closed in winter. I guess no one would want to soak in cold water under snow in the winter, right? Not forgetting, the entrance fee did not include the life jacket rental, which cost 4, won each, which was a must. Next, we went to try out the crazily exciting slides, which include tornado, camelback slide, tube slide and body slide. We managed to get 2 tour members to join us for the 60m long tornado; the slide was crazy and frightening! As we were released for the tornado ride sitting on a 4-person tube facing each other, the tube went down the tunnel so quickly, it was slightly dark but I could see and feel the tube sliding to left and right while it was moving down. As it slid to the side, it could go as high as 10ft or more from the ground level, I felt like I was going to fall looking down to the bottom of the tunnel. I shouted continuously and madly while closing my eyes most of the time throughout the ride. It was a huge effort to tell myself to open my eyes to see what was going on! LOL It was a great relief to finally see the light near the end of the tunnel. LOL Then, we moved on to the camelback slide, which I had to sit in the front for being short and probably lighter good or bad? After the most terrifying tornado ride, I managed to ride through the camelback easily; still I enjoyed shouting madly in the tunnel, just for fun. There were clean bath towels provided for us, but it was more like a hand towel to me. It was my first time going nothing though it is a norm here; I just had to grab one to cover myself even it was just part of it, actually it was just the front. LOL First time is always an exciting yet nervous experience. As I walked into the sharing hot bath, I tried not to draw much attention by walking slowly and calmly. Unfortunately, I tripped while walking into the hot bath, so it ended up the rest stared at me. Oh my! However, we were so rushed and didn't manage to take any pictures in Ocean It was about 1. I was so hungry and eagerly needed to fill up my growling stomach. It seemed they had arranged another great warm meal for us. Hot stew pork and squid, grilled fish that looked like eel and assorted banchan or side dishes, they looked so delicious! In fact, stewing the pork with squid makes the pork much tastier. It turned out to be my least favourite dish so far. Hot stew pork and squid. Grilled fish. As we were walking out the restaurant happily and satisfyingly, it started to snow! We were so lucky to be able to experience snowing second time on the same day and I know trying to catch the snow would make me look a little funny or stupid? I was enjoying every moment here. After all the joy and laugh, we took the bus back to Alpensia Resort for the best part of the tour, skiing. One of the good things about signing up this tour was that we got our very own ski trainer cum tour guide free of charge. Skiing was really fun yet tiring. Although the weather was so cold, I still sweated quite a bit after skiing for a while. The hardest part of skiing is maintaining the lean forward posture while trying stay calm and not afraid of the speed. I was really bad in keeping away my fear of speed, I fell down numerous times and getting up was another hard thing to do. Luckily the snow was soft; falling on it was actually nice and did not hurt. We spent about 1. The panorama of the Alpensia Resort. We spent a night at the 5-star Holiday-Inn Resort, which is on the left. The building on the right is the entrance to the ski resort. We had a private training session with our tour guide who is also a qualified ski trainer. Finally, I could ski We checked in a spacious room at the 5-star Holiday-Inn Resort that is just next to the ski resort. We had to change the first room for the broken door lock. Although they tried their best to provide a friendly and fast service, I was a little disappointed with their QA check after the house keeping as not only the door lock was faulty; the complimentary mineral water bottle was half empty too. Apparently, there were a few shops in the ski resort that still open for business, so I wanted to grab something light and chill out before dinner at 7pm. It was a shame to leave our DSLR in the bus so we could only use the smart phone for photos. Beautiful view in winter at the Alpensia Resort. There are a few shops available near the ski resort, which is on the top right in the photo. The Holiday-Inn resort front view from my balcony. It's another spacious and comfortable family suite at the Holiday-Inn resort. That sounded tempting. As we planned for skiing after the dinner, I thought a cheese cake and a cappuccino would be a good idea to keep me awake. I was quite disappointed looking at the cappuccino the barista made for me, the taste was awful. The interior of the Angel-in-us Coffee house near the ski resort. The device vibrated when my order was ready. The cheese cake was too sweet to my liking. Detergent foam on the not so good cappuccino. We wandered around and took some pictures with our smart phones to kill some of our time before headed for dinner off site. Braised herbal country chicken was truly a good choice for dinner. It kept my body warm and I literally needed to have more liquid after the outdoor activity. We were given plenty of time to enjoy the dinner, but everyone was rushing to finish the delightful dinner to continue skiing at night before the ski resort closed at 10pm. A pot of braised herbal country chicken that was more than enough for four of us, two were our tour members. I sort of understand why the tour guide was amazed with our bravery and desire to ski at night soon after spending about 10 minutes skiing after dinner. It was extremely windy at night and I think I spent half of the time trying to stand still when the wind blew coupled with snow, which hit directly on my face and made me difficult to breathe. It was quite tricky for a beginner like me to ski under this circumstance, but I learnt that standing with the back facing where the wind comes from helps. Also, it was very cold and I had to wear 3-layer top to keep me warm and not falling sick. At That was fair. After the long day, we still wanted to go out for more photos but this time it was with our DSLR. Apparently, the photos came out to be much better. It was about Happily posing in front of the Holiday-Inn resort at the Alpensia. The night view at the ski resort was amazing. Share with us your thought and stay tune for the subsequent destinations.
