Wycombe Summit was a dry ski slope situated in High Wycombe, Buckinghamshire. It has been closed since 22 November 2006, when a fire destroyed the Ski lodge. The ski slope opened in 1994 and was situated in Abbey Barn Lane, just south of High Wycombe. The main slope was one of England's longest dry ski slopes, at 300m long. There have been various talks about trying to reopen the site since then, all have proved unsuccessful, and it now remains in a state of disrepair.

Only been waiting 6 years.....
