High altitude corporate ski trips

Height in the Alps is key to ensure a corporate ski trip is snow-sure. Snow means wonderful piste conditions, the thrill of powder skiing and the icing on the cake - resort atmosphere.

Corporate ski trip planners require nerves of steel – company ski trip success is greatly affected by the snow conditions, which means getting the destination right. In the Alps, height usually translates to snow.

Snow on the peaks, but also the lower slopes, the trees and hotel roofs – that’s the alpine scene that should be greeting those on a corporate ski trip.

Sometimes high-altitude skiing is remote from the airport, sometimes it is distant from the charm and life of a village centre. But many high-altitude ski resorts are easy to access and have life & atmosphere for the visiting group.

Higher resorts offer both snow security and extended season dates. This brings (pre-) Christmas parties and late spring corporate ski trips into the equation.

REASONS WHY HEIGHT MATTERS

SNOW SECURITY

In general, the higher the slopes, the colder the temperatures. That is an essential factor in a warming world – the higher elevations offer a greater snow guarantee.

EARLY OR LATE SEASON SKIING

Higher slopes offer the chance for early or late season corporate ski trips, avoiding the crowds and getting the best options and value for money.

VERTICAL

Many high-altitude ski areas offer extensive vertical distances between their upper and lower limits. There is no greater pleasure than a never-ending peak to resort route.
