Ski tunnel
Ski tunnels or indoor ski arenas make it possible to do cross-country skiing year-round. Except for the shape of the building they are similar to Indoor ski slopes. The temperature inside the tunnel is kept at a constant temperature of a few degrees below zero Celsius to prevent snow from melting.
