Spring Ski in April this Easter is a must at these incredible locations
Spring skiing at Club Med All-inclusive resorts
Thought skiing was an activity just for the winter? Think again! During this off-peak snow season where weathers are milder and fewer guests are around, skiing in April is easier on the wallet and better for your leisure time. Where temperatures are warmer and days are longer, you’re guaranteed more time on the slopes and shorter waiting times at the ski lifts. To maximise a spring skiing holiday, it’s key to choose an All-inclusive ski resort with the most ideal conditions.
Prime conditions for skiing in April
High altitudes
The higher above sea level you are in the Alps, the colder the temperatures and the more snow there is. It’s as simple as that. Book your April ski trip at resorts that sit at 2000m or above sea level. At this altitude, you should be good to go for spring skiing.
Check out our NEW Kiroro Resort in Japan - this resort is easily one of the best places to ski in April, with ski seasons lasting up till May.
More Practice Time
With fewer guests on the slopes or with reduced waiting time at the chair lifts, you get more shred time on the slopes to practice those turns with wider spaces. This is the ideal condition for beginner to intermediate skiers who may require more hands-on guidance - a guarantee considering the fewer guests during this time of year.
Perfect Weather
It’s time to don that T-shirt and a pair of sunglasses as you enjoy blue skies and lovely weather conditions while you go spring skiing. Enjoy Apres Ski activities outdoors, picturesque mountainous landscapes, and ocean views with milder April/May temperatures.
