What is February half term skiing like?
The snow is at its deepest, the days are getting longer, and resorts are alive with skiers of all ages – half term is a hoot. When you’re not on the slopes, enjoy family-friendly activities and entertainment like tobogganing, ice skating, bowling, or simply sharing a delicious meal.
It’s a chance to make memories together on the mountain, and for kids to make new friends and hone their skills at ski school.
It might be a peak date, but if it's your preference, there are many ways to save on your family trip and avoid the crowds.
Here are Iglu’s top half term tips:
- Choose a resort with a generous free lift pass for kids – kids ski free up to 8 in Tignes–Val d’Isere ski area and in some Italian and Austrian resorts.
- Choose a resort with a family ski pass – ski areas offer discounts to families skiing together.
- Stay in a smaller village on the edge of a large ski area to benefit from cheaper accommodation and fewer people.
- Go all-inclusive – with accommodation, travel, meals and more typically included, costs are predictable and planning is easy.
- Choose a quieter resort – lively resorts can be fun, but if you prefer to avoid crowds, choose a lesser known resort or opt for Italy, which doesn’t have a February half term holiday.
The best half term resorts
The best half term resorts have excellent facilities, discounted beginner or family lift passes, excellent entry-level ski terrain, and sufficient lift capacity to deal with the influx of skiers. As we said above, they’re often smaller villages that are connected to a large ski area.
