The game of Polo is typically played on a grass field, but it can also be played on other surfaces, including sand, dirt, and snow. Snow Polo is played on horseback and involves teams of players trying to score goals by hitting a ball into the opponent's goal using mallets. The rules of the game are generally the same as on grass, however, playing on a snowy surface can be more challenging, as the snow can make it difficult for the players to control the ball and the horses.

There are a few places where snow polo is played, including:

St. Moritz, Switzerland: St. Moritz is known for hosting the annual Snow Polo World Cup, which is held on the frozen Lake St. Moritz.

Kitzbühel, Austria: The town, which is in the Austrian Alps, hosts an annual snow polo tournament called the Kitzbühel Snow Polo World Cup.

As with any sport, there is a risk of injury, and playing polo on a snowy surface or a frozen lake can present additional challenges and risks. It is important to ensure that the snow is groomed and packed down properly to create a safe and level playing field. Players also wear appropriate protective gear, such as polo helmets, polo boots and knee pads, to help reduce the risk of injury. Additionally, it is important to follow all safety rules and guidelines for the game, such as not riding too closely to other players or horses.

In addition to the action on the field, snow polo events and tournaments often feature other activities and entertainment, such as music, food, and beverages, which can add to the fun and festive atmosphere. Whether you are a fan of polo or simply enjoy watching horsemanship and sportsmanship in action, snow polo can be a fun and exciting spectacle to watch.
