With only a short time until Easter, there is still some availability for great Easter ski holidays.  Val d’Isere, at an altitude of 1850m, has the best of the snow until late in the season.

A luxury catered ski chalet is perfect for family or group Easter skiing holidays as the children can relax and there is lots of flexibility with meal times, plus the amount of space in the chalet means they have more freedom to run around inside.

If your Easter ski holiday is going to be your first skiing trip this season, get into ski shape over the next few weeks to build stamina and improve your flexibility.  This should include some running, which is a great way to build strength in your calves and hamstrings.  Cycling is also a good all-rounder for aerobic exercise.

Once you’re on holiday, try and remember to do your warm up exercises each morning. Doing this will help reduce the risk of injury, encourage greater blood supply to your muscles and wake you up properly!
