⛷️🏔️ NASAA Conference – Scotland 2026
It’s been a busy week, and The Lecht was delighted to co-host this year’s NASAA Conference alongside Glenshee.
The North Atlantic Ski Areas Association (NASAA) brings together ski areas from across Scotland and Iceland, providing an important opportunity for smaller resorts to share knowledge, experiences and ideas, discuss the common challenges facing our industry and strengthen collaboration with suppliers.
This year’s conference was held across the Braemar Gathering & Highland Games Centre and The Lecht Ski Centre, giving us the opportunity to showcase our ski areas, facilities and some of what makes this part of Scotland so special.
Of course, we couldn’t welcome our Icelandic friends to Scotland without giving them a taste of Scottish culture! Guests were treated to a fantastic Highland dancing display by Emma Anderson, a demonstration of traditional Highland Games heavyweight events from Kyle Randalls and James Dawkins, with delegates even getting the chance to try some of the events themselves.
The conference also featured a wonderful gin tasting experience from Persie Gin, which proved to be a great way for our guests to sample another Scottish speciality.
A huge thank you to all of our suppliers who attended and supported the conference. Their involvement, expertise and continued support play a vital role in the success of ski areas across the North Atlantic.
