It’s not only the UK which has been having almost record snowfalls this winter. With just over 5 meters recorded up on the slopes in
Andermatt
in Switzerland and 4.5 meters in
Flaine
and Les Carroz in France, lack of snow is certainly not an issue this season.
The 2012/2013 ski season has so far lived up to expectations and promises to do so right to the very end! With Easter falling relatively early this year, the possibilities for getting away for a Spring ski holiday are endless.
So you’ve booked your ski holiday and you’d like to be kept up to date about the weather and snow conditions in your chosen resort. You can, of course, consult the dedicated Weather & Snow section of our website when you have a moment OR you can simply sign up for our SnowAlert service and receive almost daily emails with full details of the weather and snow conditions in your chosen ski resort. You don’t have to fill out a long form, just choose your ski resort, enter your name and email address and you’re ready to receive your SnowAlerts with a detailed 5-day report.
If you haven’t had time or you just haven’t decided yet this season where to go for your ski holiday, then don’t worry, you can find many great last minute deals through some of the larger travel agents such as Crystal Holidays. You can set up as many Snowplaza SnowAlerts as you like, choosing your favourite resorts, keeping a close eye on snow conditions, and then deciding on the right resort at the last minute depending on where the best snow is.
We are sometimes forced to choose a ski resort which is higher, and often more expensive, because of lack of snow. However, it seems that once again, the European mountains have been blessed with enough snow to keep every ski resort’s ski slopes covered right to the end of the season. This is a great opportunity to try a lower, not so well-known ski resort for a change. You could find some really great surprises including lower prices, which nearly always go with lower altitudes… You can consult our Ski Resort Guide to discover some of the smaller, more discrete ski resorts among the 300 we have listed.

Being lucky enough to have parents who were crazy about skiing, my love for the mountains started when I was 4 years old on our first family ski holiday to Austrian ski resort of Obergurl. One ski holiday a year was never enough and tears rolled down my face as I looked out the back window of the car on the drive down the valley on the way home!
