Skiing at Easter isn’t for some people… it’s for everyone. A common misconception is that Easter weeks will see dwindling snow at resorts, but when you’re in the right place, the slopes are still sure to be blanketed. And better still, they’re bound to be quieter than in the peak winter months.
Temperatures are milder and the days are longer in March and April, so you can enjoy the pistes without the worry of getting that little bit too chilly on the mountains. There’s never a bad time to hit the slopes, but skiing in the sunshine with blue skies is hard to beat and makes skiing at Easter one of the very best. And we haven’t even mentioned the après.

Skiing at Easter in Val d'Isère, France
Swap chocolate treats for snowy pistes in high-altitude Val d'Isère and discover 159 different ski runs. Sitting at a height of 1850m, with the skiing altitude reaching 3230m, glacier skiing and 1255 snow cannons, you’re sure to find the snow to your liking.
With free guiding and coaching provided by our Neilson Mountain Experts, you’ll be cruising down the runs in no time and with the high-speed gondolas and chairlifts, it's easy to get around the huge 300km ski area.
Stay in Hotel La Tovière, our flagship Mountain Collection hotel on your trip to Val d’Isère to complete the holiday. Recharge after a day out on the mountain with a visit to the spa, or head to the stylish lounge and bar for some après cocktails.
Part of the massive Three Valleys ski area, Les Menuires is situated at an altitude of 1850m and has snowmaking equipment to ensure excellent snow levels are maintained. If you have a Three Valleys lift pass and are a confident skier, you can head on over to Val Thorens and the glacier, which offers skiing year-round.
After a day on the slopes head back to Hotel Le Menuire & Spa and relax before joining us for your evening meal, ending the day and evening with a welcome drink in the hotel bar and salon with its open fireplace.
With the long days and warmer temperatures, the Easter period is ready-made for skiing with the young ones. Resorts will put on an Easter egg hunt for the kids at this time of year, so the fun doesn’t have to end at the bottom of the run.
