Depending on one’s dream ski vacation, the world offers a multitude of excellent and beautiful skiing spots.

Zermatt, Switzerland

There shouldn’t be any doubt at all that a number of the best ski spots are located in Switzerland. Zermatt gives tourists the best experience with its interconnected ski zones providing one with terrain features perfect for a variety of skill sets: from that relaxed cruiser run to carve turns to cliff-hucks on steep drops. The old-world scenery is just too breathtaking to describe.

Taos, New Mexico

The ski town in New Mexico is a stunner both visually and conceptually. It resembles a unique artist’s colony in many respects, while the base with its Swiss-style cottages brims with old-world atmosphere. The terrain is good for different ski runs and the cover features the finest powder.

Chamonix, France

The town hosted the first Winter Olympics in 1924. It is an attractive spot for advanced skiers, with the many challenging slopes and drops. Nevertheless, it provides enough space for a cruise or a basic run.
