Hi there, we are looking to go skiing for Easter and were wondering where the best snow sure places are, as easter is quite late this year 22-25 April. We will have been to France twice already this year so preferably another country would be good, but all suggestions appreciated,
Cheers
Bekki

Last yar we skied April 1-6th in Contamines , France, which is near Megeve, Combloux, St Jervais etc....the best place for Easter snow. . .a lot of the other areas were melting but Contamines was fantastic.

Been to Saas Fee - went for New Years a couple of years ago which is very early into the Season but the snow was perfect both at the bottom and at Glacier level... Would be worth a look!

See you on the piste!!!

Go high, I was up in Scotland for last Easter and it was superb! Should be able to get a good deal that late in the season. As it's been pretty spring like in the Alps at the moment who knows what it will be like?!

I would normally recommend Chamonix, France. Great resort, and the lifts dont close until mid May usually, and that is only as they have to let the seasonal workers away. There is still plenty snow then.

However, if you dont want to go to France...try Kaprun, Saas Fee or Zermatt.
