Ski for beginners

As one of the highest resorts to crown the alps, an impressive snow record and fabulous skiing spanning two seasons are what define Cervinia.

The epitome of ski-chic, Courchevel exudes style and sophistication; its streets peppered with designer boutiques and top-class restaurants at 1,850m.

Perched on a sunny shelf looking across the Rhône Valley to the Portes du Soleil, Villars is a small, laid-back, but well-established village resort.

By day, this purpose built ski-in, ski-out village delivers in its promise to provide the utmost convenience when getting to the slopes, while by night, the star of the show is the world’s highest open-air dance floor at La Folie Douce. 

Set in a chocolate box landscape of forests and frozen lakes, Arosa has a laid back traditional Swiss ambience and a friendly welcome. 

Occupying a central position in the Three Valleys, Méribel promises unrivalled access across this vast ski area.

Dedicated nursery slopes, gentle progressive runs and a fashionable disposition have put Lech on the map for stylish skiing newbies.

The acclaimed ski resort sits on the rugged west coast of Canada, just a short drive from Vancouver – a direct flight makes it the perfect alternative to European skiing. 

Craggy pinnacles and panoramic wilderness are the welcome waggon to this haven of superior snow.

Defined by equal parts tradition, natural beauty and seemingly endless pistes, the Dolomites are the essence of winter luxury, adorned with a blanket of crisp white snow.
