A winter ski vacation to Europe is more than just a ski trip; it's a continental experience where downhill skiing and snowboarding are just some of the many activities available. Fun filled ski towns or quaint, charming Alpine villages are available to you. Which ever appeals to you Europe offers a wide selection from charming chalet hotels to deluxe lodges with spas and wellness facilities. After you spend an exciting day on the slopes join the gang for an après ski party at the many snow-bars on the mountain and in town. For a romantic evening plan a horse drawn sleigh ride with a stop at an Alpine mountain chalet for a hot glueh wine to warm body and soul. After your Alpine ski vacation you may extend your stay in Europe and visit some exciting cities such as Paris, Vienna, Munich, or Prague.
