Unmissable Snow Conditions in French Ski Resorts

While a couple of inches of snow in london and the South East is giving commuters a real headache, skiers are revelling in knee deep powder right across the French Alps. Two hefty dumps of snow – over a metre in some places – in the last fortnight have made for superb skiing conditions heading into February. Check it out.

The snow lies deep across the French Alps. And there’s more snow forecast towards the end of the week. What’s more the slopes are quiet and prices are low pre half-term. So it’s an ideal time to book a last minute ski holiday. Snowjet flights to Chambery – the local airport for Courchevel, Val d’Isere, Tignes, Meribel, Les Arcs and more – are available from £49 one way this weekend (based on flying from Gatwick to Chambery on Sunday 8th February). Our pick of Sunday to Sunday accommodation providers.
