Planning a Family Ski Vacation
It’s
time to plan the family vacation – and everyone wants to go skiing.
Don’t worry, skiing isn’t as expensive as you might think, and there
are numerous ski resorts that cater to families, offering a variety of
packages designed to save you money. The problem will be choosing
the ski destination. |

Most ski resorts have websites. Start the planning process by
accessing these websites to determine where you and your family
might want to go for your family ski vacation. There are many
different things to look for when choosing a ski resort.
The absolute most important thing to look for is a ski school if
someone in your family will need instruction. While most resorts do
have ski schools, some don’t. Don’t make the mistake of choosing a
destination where one or more of your family members won’t have fun,
simply because they don’t know how to ski.
Next, take a look at the slopes, lifts, and trails. You want to
make sure that the resort has some- thing to offer everyone in your
family.
If the resort only caters to beginners, an expert skier will become
quickly bored. If you have a snowboarder in your group, and there is
no snow- boarding park or terrain, that snow- boarder will not be
happy. There are resorts that serve all winter sports – so make sure
that your family's interests are covered.
 Lodging
is the next thing to look into. You want to be comfortable, so where
you sleep at night matters a great deal. In most cases, there's a
hotel right at the base of the slopes – but this isn’t necessarily
the best or most affordable place to stay. Find out what your
lodging options are for the area, and choose the one that is right
for your family and your budget.
If you will be staying farther away from the slopes,
make sure that there is transportation to and from the slopes each
day!
Your family will have many more interests that you will
need to search for before deciding on a particular destination and
resort. Some of those interests may be dog sledding, sleigh rides,
snow- mobiling, snowshoeing, or horseback riding. Resorts do offer
these activities, but some don’t – so be sure to ask about the
winter activities, as well as the planned events during the time
that you will be at the resort. This will help you plan a ski
vacation that your family will enjoy and remember for the rest of
their lives.
