One good method of chasing away the end-of-summer blues is to start thinking about skiing holidays, and they needn’t cost an arm and a leg if you shop around for a good deal.
So where is the best place to go skiing? The French Alps offer some of the biggest ski circuits, spectacular vistas, and all the good things about France, from its wine to its cuisine, as well as some lively après-ski in the pubs and clubs of the Alpine regions. Over the border in the Italian Alps you will find similarly good skiing, as well as the great Italian culture, pasta, pizza and wine. The après-ski in Italy is also renowned for being excellent and not too expensive.
Switzerland offers breathtaking mountain scenery and pretty lakes, as well as a number of places where you can go skiing and snowboarding all year round. Resorts like St Moritz offer the last word in luxury, plus the opportunity to spot glamorous celebrities, but there are value-for-money resorts as well. Another popular European skiing location is Austria, which has a great number of skiing resorts dotted with pretty wooden chalets, and slopes with mountain bars where you can warm yourself up with a little schnapps. As well as modern nightlife, there are also traditional Austrian restaurants offering après-ski music and entertainment.
So whether you are an advanced skier who can’t wait to get back on the slopes, or a careful beginner, a good antidote to winter is to go skiing.
