It doesn’t get much more romantic than snow-capped mountains, cosy chalets and après ski hot tubs. If you are thinking of taking a ski trip with your partner, here are some tips to ensure you have the best trip possible. We hope it will be the first of many ski holidays to come!

1. Choose the perfect resort for your couple’s ski holiday

With thousands of ski resorts to choose from in Europe, there is something for everyone, but deciding where to go skiing can be a difficult decision and one that requires a lot of research. Hanski, a couple-run independent travel agency, offers tailor-made flexible ski holidays that take the hassle out of holiday planning. 

Whether you are looking for somewhere lively like Val D’Isere or more laid-back like Obergurgl, they can find the perfect destination for you. Just let them know what you are looking for and they will do the rest! They can even help you to plan a surprise trip for your significant other! 

2. Book ski or snowboard lessons 

So you’ve finally convinced your partner to go skiing with you and you can’t wait to soon share your love of the mountains with them, but there’s a small catch – they can’t ski! 

To give them the best start on the slopes, if your partner is inexperienced, we highly recommend booking them ski lessons. Don’t try to teach them yourself. If you aren’t qualified, leave it to the experts and leave your relationship intact! This way you can both enjoy your holiday and make the most of your time on the slopes. They’ll progress much faster with lessons and you’ll be skiing together in no time! 

Or why not learn a new skill together? If you are a seasoned skier, why not start from scratch with your partner and take snowboarding lessons together? You can bond over a new hobby, make new memories and progress together quickly with the help of an expert instructor. 

3. Get everything ready for your couple’s ski holiday

Make sure that you both have everything you need for your ski trip. Get your partner kitted out with all the gear and maybe buy yourself a few new bits too! Check out our ski equipment guide and ski trip packing list to make sure you both have everything you need for the slopes. Don’t forget to get travel insurance that covers snowsports!

Hanski considers all the details of your trip, including airport transfers, accommodation, lift passes, restaurant reservations and more and they are working with Maison Sport to offer you tailored ski lessons with our expert instructors! 

Booking your couple’s ski holiday to the Alps has never been easier!
