Snow Report | 09 Dec 2017

Snow Report | 09 Dec 2017

Some are calling this the best start to the ski season in 5 years, even 10 years! After regular snowfalls over the last 6 weeks, ski resorts across Europe have excellent snow coverage with many ski areas already open. Traditionally this weekend is our first departure for customers but due to the fantastic snow and early opening of resorts and accommodations, this has allowed keen British skiers and snowboarders to get their snow fixes early.

Over 100 cm of snow has fallen in selected resorts in the past 7 days and there’s over 200 cm in the forecast for the next 9 days! These are incredible snow stats for so early in December and the best news for holiday makers heading to the mountains for Christmas and New Year.

Want a piece of the snow action? We still have many last minute ski deals from £199 pp and Christmas ski holidays and New Year ski holidays.
