As you’ll see from our most recent snow report, Austria and eastern Switzerland have had the best of the recent snowfalls in the Alps, but the northern half of the French Alps are in much better shape now as well.
There is still some availability for the half term and Easter high season dates, as well as plenty for the rest of this month. So if you fancy a ski holiday, why not book now? As well as taking a look at these deals below, it’s also worth checking for offers on the websites of the major tour operators.
Make sure you stay safe, though: take local advice and have all the necessary equipment with you before even considering leaving the marked piste.
If you’re flying from Gatwick, don’t forget to reserve your airport parking at least 24 hours before you go. Cophall Parking has some offers especially for Welove2ski readers.
