your ski level-
if you're just starting out, you
don't need to go to the best resort offering the widest selection of
runs. Its more important to choose a resort with plenty of blue and
green runs. |
2 |
english speaking
instructors- its vital that your ski
school has English speaking instructors- especially if you're a
beginner. Some smaller resorts may not have any. Learn-to-ski packages
with tour operators are the best way to go. Also, try a Learn to Ski
day in the UK before you go. |
3 |
check snow
records- the
quality of off-piste skiing is determined by snowfall. If you're
taking your holiday before mid-January, or after the end of March, go
for resorts over 2000m high to increase the chance of snow. Resorts
with glaciers will guarantee skiing. |
4 |
hiring equipment-
beginners should hire every time.
Once you like it and know what you want, you could invest in some
boots. |
