Half Term Ski Holidays

Ski half term 2011 may seem some way away but already some of the best chalets are being snapped up by families in the know.Chamonix is always popular with the family ski resort of Les Houches attracting a large proportion of the family ski clientele. A beautiful and exclusive resort that at the New Year ski week was recently the exclusive haunt of Tiger Woods wife according to press reports.

Ski Half Term

Well the family ski week of the year is just 48 hours away and Chamonix is likely to be a busy place with all the ski half term visitors. Judging by the local catered ski chalet gossip, next week will be as busy as the New Year and if you didn't book your half term week to ski Chamonix months ago, you won't be skiing here next week! The ESF Ski Schools also have the sold Out signs as do many of the local ski hire shops in Chamonix for the ski half term week.

The good news here for this family ski week is that the gods have shined on Chamonix with snow falling at various times the last three days and all runs have great snow cover and conditions which will ensure the high number of ski half term chalet visitors will have plenty of pistes to spread out.

Nevertheless with so many children amongst the family skiing groups, please take special care and ski Chamonix safely and well within your ability.
