The Lecht, located in the north eastern Cairngorms, is one of the most intimate, friendly and innovative snowsport centres in Scotland. In recent years the resort has been at the forefront of developing alternative snow and mountain sports in Scotland, and also added its first chair lift for the 1999-2000 season. The Lecht opened in the 1977/78 season with very limited facilities. Three portable ski tows were used and a small hut served as the cafe, seating around 30 people. In those days the car park was only big enough for 50 cars and ski hire only had 40 pairs of skis (a figure which has now grown to more than 600). Tickets were sold over the counter at the hut/cafe and the ski school shared a space with the ski hire. Over the following decade all profits were sunk back into the company and there was a steady expansion in all departments.
