    This week we explored news from around the world of summer and winter mountain resorts including:

    Swiss Glacier Monitoring Network, Glamos that the countries glaciers have 31% more snow on them now than on average over the years between 2010 and 2020


    9% of skiers in French resort were from the UK, that’s the largest group after the French


    France’s ski season has just come out with some good news about the snow because above 1800 metres, snow accumulation was 20-30 cm’s above the average


    Peak Retreats have just launched what they say are affordable family summer holidays in the mountains and I took a look at some of the deals they have on offer – they go to the likes of Les Contamines, Samoens, Le Grand Bornand and Val Cenis. For around £1100 you can get a nice two bedroom apartment for a week that also includes a return ferry crossing, so pretty decent. Check those out at peakretreats.co.uk


    Skiline are offering chalets in Les Gets, Morzine and some of the Austrian resorts too. Chalets and apartments significantly lower than during the winter months, even during the school holidays.


    We also talked all things climbing and we discussed Via Ferrata another great way of getting up the mountains.


    We looked at some of the best places to go including:

    Chamonix including Mont Blanc at 4,805 metres, plus classic routes the grand Jorasses, the aiguille du dru and aiguille Verte


    Glenmore Lodge near Aviemore in Scotland


    The Dolomites are still probably the most famous destination to experience Via Ferrata – publishers Cicerone have a guide book with 75 routes included cicerone.co.uk

    We discussed the Swiss Valais including the likes of Zermatt, Verbier, Nendaz, Crans-Montana, Anzère, Veysonnaz, Saas Fee, Leukerbad, Grimentz and Zinal as great places to experinece Via Ferrata.


    We also looked at:

    Crans-Montana - super luxury hotels, spas, golf, wakeboarding, e-mountain biking, hiking and incredible local wineVerbier – ride a huge network of mountain bike trails, listen to classical music, hang out in cool bars and pubs, great hiking of course and explore the area on a road bike.

    Nendaz and Veysonnaz, relax with the family, take long hikes, try paragliding, have a go at via ferrata and of course try mountain biking too
    saas fee, well we mentioned the via ferrata, again great hiking but spectacular glacier scenery too and ride the funicular to the top

    For more info head to Valais.ch/en


    Amnd finally we explored Whistler and all it has to offer in summer including:

    Whistler Mountain Bike Park, Peak to Peak Gondola, The High Note Trail, The Audain Art Museum, The Squamish Lil'wat Cultural Centre, Fairmont Chateau Whistler or the Four Seasons Resort, ZipTrek Eco Tours, Whistler Farmers’ Market, The Whistler Golf Club, designed by Arnold Palmer and the Nicklaus North Golf Course, designed by Jack Nicklaus.



    In the meantime Enjoy the mountains :) And Please do leave a review as it's the only way other like minded travellers get to find us!
