One of the busiest weeks of the ski season is upon us. Below you can find some February half term 2023 hints to make the most of your holiday!
February Half Term 2023 Hints
Take a packed lunch on the piste
If you have a large family, consider taking a packed lunch out for the day, this will save huge amounts on food. A few sandwiches, baguettes, couple of pieces of fruit, maybe some nuts, water, juice. Whatever you fancy, if you can avoid the ever increasing prices of lunch on the piste, then you’re onto a winter.
Avoid restaurants and bars over lunchtime
If you don’t fancy taking a packed lunch and want to treat yourself on the piste. Then we would recommend having an early lunch, say 11:00, or perhaps a later lunch, say 15:00. Restaurants are less busy to enjoy but also, whilst everyone else is having lunch between 12:00 – 14:00, the pistes tend to be quieter. Best of both worlds.
Pack for all weather
Even when you’re an adult, the cold is never fun. Let alone if you’re a child. So make sure you have everything you need to stay warm. Perhaps some spare gloves, a scarf, and extra base layer, jumper, maybe even a towel – just be sure to keep it dry. You can even look into purchase heat pads – like these ones on millets which will only set you back £1.50 per pack.
Alternative events
Plenty of ski resorts around Europe appreciate the fact that’s in a half term and thus cater for that. By that we mean, look out for child friendly activities in resort and the local town. Ski resorts have other amenities to keep you busy too, bowling alleys, climbing centres, cinemas, ice skating rings, tubing, swimming pools, Just because you’re on a ski holiday, doesn’t always mean you just have to ski or snowboard.
