Pack-Smart Checklist for Your Ski Holiday!
Want to have a memorable winter break? Book your accommodation in a catered ski chalet! Tignes
resort provides plenty of snow activities for your enjoyment.
(firmenpresse) - You’ve been waiting with anticipation for your next big break; you can picture yourself high on
a mountain peak, feeling the gentle breeze, surrounded by shimmering snow… Winter is almost here,
and it is that time when snow enthusiasts book their next holiday in a catered ski chalet. Tignes
is one resort that has everything that you need, whether you’re an amateur or an experienced
skier.
Why should you consider Tignes for your next winter holiday? Well, for starters, it’s situated
in the French Alps and blessed with high-altitude terrain, which guarantees a consistent snow
presence throughout the winter season. Because of this, it’s one of the largest and most popular
ski destinations in Europe. To convince you further, there are also many different activities you
can partake in, which include ice climbing, snow hiking, snowshoeing, and dog sledding.
That’s the location taken care of but, if you’re a newbie, you might be wondering what to pack
for your ski holiday. Read on to find out more, because we’ve got you covered!
Socks
Opt for thin socks made of wool for maximum comfort, because, on top of keeping you warm, they
keep moisture at bay and will not stick to your boots. You can buy quality socks at the resort if
you’re not quite sure about what to take.
Boots
If you’re buying your own, make sure you get boots that are a proper fit, not too tight or
uncomfortable, with high-quality liners (i.e., the inner part that makes contact with your feet).
In addition, depending on your ski skills, you should check the flex rating. A well-seasoned skier
should go for higher-flex boots, and an amateur should opt for the lower-rated ones.
Warm Clothing
Temperatures between December and February can fall below 0oC, or 32 oF in Tignes, while between
March to April, the range is normally between 0oC to 10oC, or (32 oF to 57 oF). Naturally, the
right clothes are essential to keep you warm and dry, as you sweat during different activities.
Consider the following factors:
Avoid clothes made of polyester, nylon, acrylic, and elastane (i.e. synthetics) because they
have low heat insulation properties and can also retain moisture from sweat. Opt for wool rather
than cotton.
Look for a jacket with an elastic bottom to prevent snow from getting inside.
Opt for pants and jackets with numerous zipper vents, to supply cool air when you
heat up.
Goggles, helmet and gloves
Helmets protect against injuries in case of an accident or fall, while goggles and gloves will
protect you during snowstorms and from the cold, generally. For hygiene purposes, you may not be
able to rent these items on your holiday in a catered ski chalet; Tignes has some good snow gear
shops, though, if you don’t purchase them before you leave home.
Electronics
Don’t forget to pack your favourite electronics and gadgets to make the trip memorable (essential if you’re travelling with kids). Remember your phone, headphones, cameras, and, most importantly, the chargers!
Ski equipment
If you don’t have your own snowboards, skis, boots and poles, you can rent these items from the
resort store when you stay in a catered ski chalet. Tignes snow sports professionals will be able
to specify the right equipment according to your skill level.
Toiletries
Remember that the cold weather can cause breakouts or dry skin, so a good moisturiser and a lip
balm are essential in addition to your regular toiletries. Also, include a sun protection cream
to prevent sunburn from the rays reflected off the snow surface.
Accessories
You may also need additional items such as a neck warmer, balaclava, and beanie to provide extra
warmth, which are essential if snowstorms ensue. Check out the predicted weather and purchase/pack
accordingly.
A ski holiday is a perfect way to de-stress and enjoy time in nature by exploring different
activities such as skiing, hiking, and snowboarding. However, to have a memorable experience, you
need to make sure you pack the essential gear for warmth, safety, and comfort.
For a winter holiday full of fun and activities, book a break in a catered ski chalet; Tignes
is an amazing ski destination, so what are you waiting for?
