Frequently asked questions
Can non-skiers join this tour?
Yes. Most ski resorts have slopes suitable for beginners and ski/snowboard schools. Lessons, equipment and ski passes are generally not included in the tour price and are purchased separately; those who do not want to ski can spend their time on snow walks, sledging or local sightseeing.
Do I need to bring my own ski equipment?
It is not required; ski resorts have rental points for skis, snowboards, poles, boots and helmets. Rental equipment is usually not included in the tour. We recommend bringing personal clothing such as a waterproof jacket and trousers, gloves, thermal underwear, a hat and sunglasses.
Is snowfall guaranteed?
No. The amount of snow and the opening and closing dates of the slopes vary each year depending on the weather; although some resorts support this with artificial snowmaking, natural snowfall is the deciding factor. We recommend following the resort's current snow and slope conditions before you travel.
