Cheap ski holidays
It can cost less than you’d think to get a taste of the action with our choice of cheap ski holidays. Why not go skiing in Bulgaria? Bulgaria’s ski resorts are perfect for winter sports on a budget, and also an excellent choice for beginner skiers. The country’s main ski resorts, Bansko, Borovets and Pamporovo all offer equipment hire, English-speaking instructors and some excellent après-ski activities, including great value food and drink, bars and clubs. You can also take in historic sites like the Rila Monastery – a perfectly preserved monastery on Rila mountain – or have a pampering day in one of the area’s hot mineral spring spas.
Luxury ski holidays
Or for something a bit further afield, how about exploring Canada’s skiing destinations. The country’s four main national parks – Banff, Jasper Kootenay and Yoho – all form part of the UNESCO World Heritage listed Canadian Rocky Mountain Parks, and offer some spectacular skiing action. Including the Powder Express, Canada’s second longest vertical slope, which is found in Banff. And with a wide range of accommodation options available, from motels and hotels, to authentic log cabins and luxurious lodges, you’ll be able to plan the perfect trip to suit your needs.
You can also find luxury ski holidays closer to home, such as our selection of trips to resorts in Switzerland. The country’s resorts are known for their charming character, as well as their world-class dining. Or, for something a bit different, check out Andorra. Found in the Catalan Pyrenees, the resort of Arsinal is known for its skiing, snowboarding and exciting après-ski, with plenty of mountain bars and cafes to choose from. As it’s just a short drive from the capital of Andorra la Vella, it’s also a great place for a shopping trip.
Family ski holidays
And with many resorts offering activities suitable for all levels of ability, why not try one of our family ski holidays. You’ll find quiet and peaceful getaways in the French Alps, while Tyrol in Austria offers a good selection of slopes, excellent snow, inspirational views and historic sights.
