<![CDATA[Ski holiday]]>We have gone two ski holidays in the raw, last year Korea and this year Japan. Kids are really happy with ski. They are getting along so fast. So they want to go again, and again.


Where will you suggest next ski destination?

The drive up was easy and well-organised.


We timed our stay during the weekend of Winter Open Festival. There was stage performance, cakes, balloons, warm red wine and even fireworks during the opening ceremony.

We booked an apartment with snow insurance inclusive. If it doesnt snow 3 days before our booking dates, we could cancel the apartment booking.

has anyone tried skiing in lake tahoe? am considering making a trip next year and would like to hear some comments or feedback about skiing there. i am inclining towards sierra at tahoe and would like to know where is a good place to stay.


thanks in advance.
A friend went to Lake Tahoe before and the verdict on the snow was not very good. Am told by another that Aspen is very good. Maybe you'll want to check this out.

Planning to try Whistler the next time if my #3 can take that kind of long flight 😂


Otherwise, am told that Niseko has the best powdery snow.

The other place that we have enjoyed is Courchevel 1850, but a bit too ex.

Just back from Hakuba and the powdery snow was lovely.. ... :love:

...One of Hokkaido ski destinations, Which resort did you stay?
How far is from airport to ski resort?

Try Zematt, we went last year and it was really good. But you have to book early cos the ski resorts get filled up pretty fast. Its v popular and the view of the Matterhorn is really awesome!

New Zealand. There's Mt Ruapehu/Turoa in the North Island or The Remarkables, Coronet Peak and Treble Cone around the Queenstown/Wanaka areas. Beautiful and really good skiing. But winter's in June.

I have been there. its beautiful.

Not too bad. Or try Alpensia in Korea. It is Korea’s venue to host a winter Olympic so it is nice. Not sure if they won the bid though.

The interesting thing about Zermatt is that you can actually ski there in June! I wanted to let DD ski for a day when we were there but DH not keen. :sad:

wow, that is cool.

It's the biggest ski resort in Hokkaido, with many ski trails for beginners, intermediate, advance and expert on both Mt Isola and Mt Yotei.

It offers many fun snow activities, like snow ruffing, snow mobile, trekking etc...and the latest feature, Daniel Kids Snow Park is now open. Check out the links below.
It's a all-in-one resort, It has a mini indoor theme park too. Your family don't have to step out of the resort throughout the stay; restaurants, minimarts, boutique, ski gears shop etc etc and they organize many workshops (leather goods making etc) within the premises.

being in China, probably price is competitive. Whether good or not, I have no idea since I have not been there myself.
