Most avid skiers agree that it is never as fun during peak season when you face lengthy queues, busy pistes and people all over town, which is why I think that it is best to organise your trip for the start of the year. Skiing...

However, I always recommend Courchevel in The Three Valleys to groups, as its facilities and atmosphere have something fun in store for everyone. It is also easy to reach by opting for a shared or private ride from Geneva...
