Ever wanted to sprint through snow, crawl under nets, dive into ice pools, and swing across monkey bars—all without leaving the UAE? Well, dust off those thermals and channel your inner Viking because Ski Dubai’s Ice Warrior Challenge is back on Sunday, 14 September, and it’s frostier, fiercer, and funnier than ever.
Brought to you by Ski Dubai and the Dubai Sports Council, the 16th edition of this legendary obstacle race is turning the World’s Best Indoor Ski Resort into an icy battleground of epic proportions. Picture a wintery warzone complete with 20+ heart-pumping challenges—think rope walls, tyre runs, monkey bars, net crawls, and ice pools that’ll make your toes tap out in Morse code.
