Essential packing for winter holidays…

Just when you think you’ve got the packing list down, you decide to take on a new kind of holiday. You may need a lot of the same things wherever you’re off to, but if you’re planning to hit the slopes you’ll need a few extra (warm) essentials. Don’t forget to check that your travel insurance covers snow sports, too.

Clothing and accessories for one week:

  • 3 x thermal tops
  • 3 x thermal leggings
  • 2 x fleeces/jumpers
  • Waterproof ski jacket
  • Waterproof trousers/salopettes
  • 4 x pairs of ski socks
  • Underwear
  • Swimwear (if needed)
  • Comfy clothes – think warm layers
  • Shoes with a good grip – snow or hiking boots are a good investment. Save space in your case by wearing them on the plane
  • Ski gloves (plus thermal gloves if you get super cold)
  • Neck warmer (ditch the chunky scarf)
  • Ski goggles
  • Sunglasses with UV lenses
  • Helmet (if not available for hire)
  • Hat
  • Sun cream and SPF lip balm – don’t be fooled by the snowy scenes. You’re spending all day, every day outside
  • Small rucksack for when you’re on the slopes – with a water bottle and emergency contact details inside.
