The wait is over! Where To Ski and Snowboard 2016 is on sale now

The wait is over! Where to Ski and Snowboard 2016 is out now. Our 21st birthday edition was launched on Monday, and on sale now here for £16.99.

The “skiers bible” was launched in 1994 by Chris Gill and Dave Watts, when it set new standards of comprehensive coverage, detailed information and clear design.

In 2016 Where to Ski and Snowboard has no competitors in print, and gives uncompromising appraisals of all the resorts you are likely to want to consider, supported as ever by carefully chosen photos, specially prepared piste maps, scale village plans and all the crucial details you could wish for – key mountain facts, lift pass details, recommended hotels, bars and restaurant.

This year’s edition has news of major developments that create the biggest ski areas in Austria and the USA, plus eight completely new chapters covering 24 extra resorts, from Alpbach in Austria and Arosa in Switzerland to Steamboat in the USA and Valmorel France.

A vital part of the “skiers bible” is its annually updated Resort Price Index (RPI) figures, which show at a glance how each resort compares with the average Eurozone resort for the cost of food and drink, lift pass, equipment and ski lessons.

The 2016 guide reports how, because of dramatic exchange rate changes, resorts in the eurozone (which includes France, Austria, Italy and Andorra) have become around 20% cheaper in terms of pounds than they were two years ago.

The same cannot be said of US and Swiss resorts where exchange rates have not moved as favourably. According to the guide’s RPI (Resort Price Index) figures, on-the-spot costs in Swiss ski resorts are likely to be around 50% more than in the eurozone, and in US resorts about double the eurozone costs.
