Bath Snowsports’ trips are legendary; we take a sizeable chunk of the University’s student population, stick them on a pyjama party bus for a few hours and eventually drop them off at the top of a snowy mountain for a week of serious fun and fancy dress. This year we’re heading to Val Thorens in the Three Valleys; the heart of the French Alps. Last year’s trip sold out in 28 hours, so once the trip becomes available don’t delay, it will undoubtably sell out the very same day. We welcome all level of skiers, and offer a brilliant beginners package for those wanting to learn on the real stuff.

The trip price includes 6-day Val Thorens lift pass, return coach transport from Bath, London or Dover to the resort, 6 nights self-catered accommodation and a few extras here and there!

There are a variety of options to choose from. The mountain meal is an epic evening event that involves lots of meat fondue, a bottle of wine each(or non-alcoholic alternative), singing and table dancing in a mountain-side restaurant followed by a torch-lit descent through the trees back to the hotel. Not to be missed!

It is also possible to upgrade your lift pass to include the full Three Valleys ski area. This includes Meribel & Courchevel, and other resorts, combining to make the largest ski area in the world, linked together by ski runs and ski lifts, with 600 kms of interconnected slopes and 180 ski lifts!

It is essential to have insurance whilst on a snowsports holiday, as even though the risk of injury is fairly low, the cost of not having one is very high! If you don’t fancy sorting out your own insurance policy these can be included during the booking process.
