Spring skiing means longer days, warmer weather, emptier pistes, and you’ll hopefully be able to sit outside in the sun for lunch or a drink. Our offers here include skiing combined with music festivals, ski-touring, and a competition to win a short break ski holiday.

Don’t forget to reserve your airport parking at least 24 hours before you go – this is especially important during the peak holiday periods such as Easter. If you’re flying from Gatwick, Cophall Parking has some offers just for Welove2ski viewers.

Due to readers’ requests, we now also have our ski holiday prices in euros (with the exchange rate correct at the time of writing), although you should contact tour operators direct for a quote that doesn’t include travel from the UK.
