If you fancy a skiing holiday in March, expect great snow conditions, and an overall more peaceful skiing experience!
In March you can:
Relax and unwind! Similar to January, March is another quieter month on the slopes. French school holidays are over by the second week in March, so the pistes tend to be less busy meaning you and your family can enjoy a calmer atmosphere and take to the slopes without feeling rushed.
Enjoy the warmer weather! It starts to get a little bit warmer in March, which may be rather attractive to those ‘fair-weather-skiers’ amongst us!
Still take advantage of the excellent snow conditions – March actually tends to be one of the snowier months.
February is perfect for a fun-filled half term week of family skiing, and lots of families find this is their preferred month to hit the slopes!
In February you can:
Make sure children don’t miss out on school by taking them during February half term.
Enjoy the best ski conditions of the year (usually!)
Get involved with the hustle and bustle of the resorts and interact with lots of other families and children enjoying their skiing holiday too.
Remember: French school holidays fall during February so be prepared for slopes to be busier throughout this month.

april
April sees the warmer weather coming in, and while the snow is still good, it is probably your last chance of the season to enjoy a family skiing holiday together.
In April you can:
Take advantage of beautiful spring skiing – longer days means more skiing time and warmer weather.
Head to the higher resorts now it is nearing the end of the season- La Plagne, Les Bruyères & Reberty 2000 are the best for April skiing conditions, and those with a glacier are also a great choice.
Bag yourself a bargain – prices of lift passes fall during this final month of the season.
Head to fun festivals and entertainment on the slopes such as the brilliant Subli'cimes in La Plagne.
