Why you should totally go spring skiing in the Alps

Some resorts even close early May! With more space to have fun, great conditions, and more time to enjoy the activities - this is your opportunity to enjoy a different kind of snow experience.

Spring Splendor: Luxuriate in Lengthy Days and Lively Activities

Take in the best of the spring light

Spring is the ideal period to enjoy the mountains with longer days, sometimes up to 12 hours of daylight. From sunrise around 6:30 am to sunset around 7:00 pm, you'll have plenty of time to enjoy world-class slopes.

Longer days also mean more time to enjoy the all-inclusive offer at Club Med ski resorts: ski and snowboard all day long, try non-ski activities from snowshoe walking and sledding to après-ski treats including hot tubs, saunas or outdoor heated swimming pools.

Milder and less icy temperatures

The warmer weather allows you to practice activities with temperatures above 0 at this time of the year. The average temperature at Les Arcs, just as an example is approximately around 5 degrees.

Why not use this as an opportunity to enjoy unique outdoor activities? There's nothing quite like snowshoe walking or sledding on the French slopes , horseback riding through the snow-sprinkled trees or ice fishing in Japan , paragliding or dog-sledding in Italy .

The Untapped Joy of Post-Holiday Skiing

Less crowded mountains

Travel after the major European school holidays and the mountain is all yours. Discover the ski area and its charming surroundings with privileged conditions.

It’s ideal for beginners wanting to learn without the crowds as well as for intermediate and advanced skiers and snowboarders - so much fun and almost no waiting time at the chair lift.

Plus, fewer people around also mean you might even be able to get more intimate-sized group lessons. Everyone is winning!

Greater value packages

Another great advantage of spring skiing is that you can also get a better deal. Your stay duration might be more flexible and special spring prices from flights to accommodation might make it easier to finally book that snow holiday you've been dreaming about.

Those in the know have figured out that fewer people also mean even more time to indulge in the all-inclusive package offers. Because we know the best part of a ski holiday is not just skiing...
