SkiRebel.com has learned that Acer Snowmec has begun work on Turkey’s first new indoor snow centre.

The Snow Park will be part of the new Deepo Shopping Centre opening in Istanbul. It will be heavily themed with an ice cavern and interlinked towers with rope bridges making for an exciting interactive snow fun centre for children and adults.

It will incorporate a 70m (230ft)-long main slope plus a 20m (66ft) beginners slope and 10m (33ft) toboggan slope. For the more adventurous there will be a 90m (295ft) ice slide which meanders from the highest level and ends in front of the glazed curtain walling to the shopping Mall. There is a smaller twin Ice Slide for the younger children from an intermediate plateau level at 30m (100ft) long again terminating in front of the glazed viewing area.
