39 guides
Month-by-month guides look at skiing in December, March and April: snow reliability at different altitudes, how busy the slopes are, and how prices change through the season.
Early and late trips reward higher resorts and glaciers; mid-season gives the widest choice. Use these guides to match your dates to resorts that suit them.
