        Today we will talk about The 10 Best Ski Resorts in Europe. For our 36th annual Reader’s Choice Awards survey, registered voters weighed in on their favorite places around the globe. When it comes to the best ski resorts in Europe,  Condé Nast Traveler  readers are eclectically picky snow bunnies: They rated these their 20 favorite spots for ski and après-ski a mix of high-profile  Alps  hangouts and the more remote, high-altitude destinations made for families as well as serious downhillers.  1:  Zermatt, Switzerland Zermatt, surrounded by the Alps’ tallest peaks, has 223 miles of runs in four huge ski areas—some at an altitude of over 10,000 feet, so snow here lingers well beyond the winter season. This enchanting, alpine village lies at the foot of the Matterhorn, Switzerland's most famous mountain, and has plenty of modern touches, like its state-of-the-art lift system and swanky après-ski diversions. Horse-drawn sl...

         Today we will talk about Top 5 Ski Resorts in Austria. Looking for a ski holiday with a sense of place and respect for traditions  as well as plenty of gravity-driven excitement? Austria is waiting.  The country where the young Hannes Schneider perfected the art of downhill skiing in the early 20th century  and taught his Arlberg technique to a legion of eager disciples  has much to offer.  There are plenty of friendly, family-run hotels and guesthouses, where parents and grandparents busy themselves and plough their profits back into continuous programmes of refurbishment. Add in some of the highest snowfall averages in the Alps, as well as reasonably priced food and drinks, and it’s not hard to see why so many holidaymakers are charmed. But it’s not just the sense of comfort that marks this place out. Austria is also a country that’s 60 per cent mountains. Many of the locals ski like gods and many of the pistes are j...

            Today we will talk about Top 5 Ski Resorts in France Whatever your taste in skiing, winter activities, or lodging may be, there's a place for you in the French Alps. And wherever you go, one thing you can be sure of is spectacular mountain scenery. Ratings of resorts  by various sources can be confusing because some list by individual resorts, while others list by groups of nearby mountains, known as ski domains. For example, Courchevel, Meribel, and Val Thorens may be grouped together as Les Trois Vallees - The Three Valleys. Here, we show individual resorts separately when they have enough terrain and enough facilities to stand alone as a top destination for a ski holiday. 1:  Courchevel Les Trois Vallées (Three Valleys) is a group of interlinked ski resorts that make up  the world's largest alpine ski domain , and Courchevel is the largest and most famous of these resorts. Courchevel's 60 lifts give skiers and riders ...

           Today we will talk about Top 5 Ski Resorts in Switzerland. Whether it's the glamour of St. Moritz or the dazzling vision of the Matterhorn towering above Zermatt's classic chalets, every skier dreams of skiing the Swiss Alps. Contrary to what you may have heard, not everyone here skis like James Bond, and these majestic mountains are not just for experts. Most resorts have easy  cruising terrain and excellent learning programs . Many have dedicated slopes and lifts just for learners and beginners. And while après-ski may be lively in some larger ski centers, Swiss ski resorts are equally well tuned to the needs of families, with family-friendly lift passes, lodgings, and packages. 1:  Zermatt The  highest winter sports area in the Alps , with ski terrain at altitudes between 2,500 and 3,900 meters and more than 2,133 meters of vertical drop — Switzerland's greatest — it seems almost unfair that Zermatt should also have Eu...
