Family Ski Holidays

Not always famous for family ski holidays, we think Verbier is a little misunderstood. Yes some of the skiing is better suited for good intermediates and advanced skiers, but this fails to take into consideration the Savoleyres ski area or La Chaux. The first even has its own magic carpet (slow moving travelator) and a slow moving long drag, as well as good blue runs. The second for those who have progressed from the necessary slopes has a great green slope and easy blue to practice on.

Couple this with some of the best family ski chalets Verbier and Europe has to offer and you have a great family ski holiday.

Ski In Ski Out Chalets

The one thing in Verbier that are hard to come by are ski in ski out chalets. Some of the best skiing in the Alps, most of the chalets are located in the town just below either the Medran or the Savoleyres ski areas.

Family Chalet

There are some really great family chalets in Verbier, but this week we wanted to cover Chamonix where one of our good friends run probably the best family chalet your find in that Valley. Six bedrooms, and importantly a full sized pool table(!), plus cinema, a hot tub, and a children's entertainer make this the family chalet in our book. Good luck to them for next season which we are told is already selling well.

Skiing New Years Eve

Verbier has to be one of the best resorts to ski New Year and celebrate New Years Eve. And now a new site will launch shortly called New Year Ski which will bring you the latest chalets and availability for one of your favourite weeks in the ski season calendar. Good luck to them, but just make sure you choose Verbier, one of the best ski resorts in the world, and unlike the Danish beer, there's no 'probably' about it!

Gay Ski Holidays

The pink pound is something probably not to be ignored and Pink Ski look set to plug the gap in the market with a dedicated gay ski site for gay and lesbian skiers. Certainly in Verbier we are pleased to believe that homophobia is not an issue and if a site can get the message across, it will have our backing.
