Luxury ski chalets

It might seem strange, with me being an Alaskan and all, but I have no idea how to ski. It is something that I have always desired to learn, and something that I always think about as winter is drawing to a close. Some day I want to get myself a good pair of cross country skis so I can go skiing along the trails and snowed in roads here in my area in the winter time.

Skiing is also a very popular excuse for traveling. There are places that have been built around the ski season (Aspen), and there are even sites such as Supertravel that are dedicated to organizing Ski holidays for those wishing to experience Europe in a whole new way.

A company based in the UK, Supertravel has more than 40 years of travel experience and departments dedicated to organizing ski holidays to luxury ski chalets. Imagine spending a week skiing in Courchevel, France. France's first real jet-set resort, Courchevel is really a series of smaller villages whose numerically tagged names reflect their heights in meters. In addition to the luxury chalets in Courchevel, France, another great place to visit while you are looking for great skiing destinations is Meribel, France. Meribel is located in the heart of the world-famous Three Valley ski area and from what I have seen has breathtaking scenery.

If you want to learn to ski then there can be few places I can think of that would be better than St Anton, Austria. A part of the Arlberg alliance of ski resorts, the first skiing teachers were employed at St. Anton before World War I.

Luxury Skiing holidays are without a doubt one of the nicer means of passing the time in the winter, because when the weather is too poor to be out enjoying the beauty of the area, you can cuddle up indoors around a fire with a nice mug of something to warm the insides as you dream of skiing through the sunlit fluffy powder.
