I’ve never been skiing before,where would be the best place to go,Austria or Switzerland,i know Austria is a bigger country than switzerland,what resorts are the best,i would like to be close to a city,i would want to spend £500 at the most,do you have to pay separately for ski equipment and ski clothes when you go to a ski resort

asked:


I’m sorry for asking what may seem a very silly question but I’ve never been on a skiing holiday before so I genuinely know NOTHING about them. I basically want to know how to go about booking one. I’ve found accommodation and flights to one resort but need to know how do I actually go about getting on the slopes? Do I gave to buy some kind of pass? I’ve heard of lift passes, would I just be able to go up the lift and use the slope all included in the price of a lift pass? As I am a complete beginner I’d rather have some kind of instruction so how would I go about getting this and any idea what all this would cost? (So far flights and accommodation to a resort in France are setting me back £600 for 2 of us) Thanks and please feel free to add any tips/extra information as I need all the info I can get

Jon asked:


I’m going ski-ing to France soon – only my 2nd time

I’m going on a package and it says that all ski hire equipment is included by helmets are not provided as they are not a legal requirement in France.

Forget whether they’re a legal requirement or not, would it be worth me actually getting on – either trying to hire one from a shop when I am there, or buying one before I go?

I’m not a pro skiier (have only been once in my life before) so wont be going fast. That said, the fact that I am such a beginner may actually be more or a reason to wear one as Im more likely to crash!

What do you think? Is it worth it, or will I just look stupid as nobody else in France will have one?

Tommy Williams asked:


I am heading to Grindelwald in Switzerland for a ski holiday next January and I was wondering if anyone had any experience of Altitude ski school who are based in both Grindelwald and it’s neighbouring resort of Wengen. I have done a couple of weeks skiing before but would really like to be able to push myself a little harder and finally be ready for black runs.

Many thanks in advance for your answers.
