Winter activities to try this year!

In 2020, we were deprived of that lovely spell of winter up in the mountains. Our favourite chalet was closed and we were in lockdown. In short, nothing was going right! But this year is the time to enjoy it twice as much. And for that, what could be better than trying out some winter activities?

Winter activities to enjoy on your own

This one is easy: to enjoy the snow and the superb winter landscapes on your own, here are the best activities:

• Snow sports: skiing, snowboarding and more
• Making the most of theswimming poolor thesauna
• Trying outcold-water baths
• Treating yourself at a restaurant: nobody to judge you over your raclette and all the extras...
• Tryingice climbing: an unforgettable experience
• Going for a ride on afat bike
• And finally,take to the skies: go on a sightseeing flight or give paragliding a go!

We too often limit ourselves to snow sports, but as you can see, there are plenty of other winter activities to enjoy solo!

The ones to do as a group

Besides skiing together, which, we'll admit, is one of our favourite activities, here's a short list of what you could do this year:

• Snowshoe hikes: perfect for taking along young and old alike
• Dog-sledding rides: ideal for a romantic outing
• Outdoor ice skating: for young and old, but with a view thrown in!
• Ice fishing: an activity offered at some resorts that will really put your patience to the test!
• For a real thrill, also trysnow rafting: careful, hold on tight!
• And for bikers at heart, you could plan asnowmobile excursion
• We almost forgot! You can't leave your resort without a propersnowball fightand asnowmancompetition!

For those who never feel the cold, you could also plan a camping trip. Waking up in the morning is an absolute treat!So which activity will you choose? Also worth noting: you don't have to book a stay lasting several days and do everything in one go. Head off on a micro-adventure several times over the winter and make the most of it!
