Your own mountain dream hideaway >
Reves de Montagne is a very special chalet tucked away just outside the village of Samoens that’s part of the Grand Massif ski area (Flaine, Les Carroz) and is the 4th largest ski area in France.
Over two years of restoration ended last winter when Karen and Andy from the UK launched their five bedroom restored farmhouse to much critical aclaim. With professionally cooked meals and lots of extra touches, including a huge hot tub on the balcony and a bespoke, personal service, the chalet is perfect for a combination of peaceful relaxation and great skiing.
Ski Press will assist in all aspects of the trip which will include flying to Geneva, transfers, lift passes and up to 3 nights accommodation in Chalet Reves de Montagnes. The trip is open to any level of skier.

Stay Safe and Have Fun with Henry and the A Team >
Henry has built up a fantastic reputation for running mountain safety talks both in Val d’Isere, France and around the UK before the winter season starts. He now takes his program onto the snow so that skiers can both have fun off-piste and learn about avalanche safety at the same time.
The three day off-piste program is based in the resort of Val d’Isere. Off-Piste skiing has grown in popularity during the last few years due to advances in ski equipment technology and skiers technique.
Remaining safe in the mountains is the number one priority and Henry guides his group through a variety of scenarious that provide the skills and tools to take away with them when skiing alone.
This trip is open to skiers who have already had some off-piste ski experience and would be comfortable skiing on any graded ski run. There is no organised trip and dates are flexible. The course runs for 3 days and flights, accommodation and lift pass will be provided. We have limited availability for this trip and will therefore take it on a first come, first served basis.
Other angles >
> Avalanche education combined with ski teaching and great off-piste skiing
> Val d’Isere is one of Europe’s premier ski destinations
> Combine your ski holiday in Val d’Isere with three days of Henry’s Off-Piste course
> Gain tools that will help you on future ski trips when skiing off-piste

Arguably the most glamorous ski resort town in the world, St Moritz attracts some of the most successful, affluent and well-travelled skiers throughout the winter months.
Completely exclusive within Switzerland to Ski Cool St Moritz is the UPS system of teaching. UPS has been designed to allow a more rapid progression for skiers at every level.
