Ski Club Of Great Britain Launches 2024-25 Freshtracks Programme

The Ski Club of Great Britain has launched its new Freshtracks programme with 21 new holidays (over 160 in total) that start in late November 2024 and run through to early May 2025.

• 21 new skiing holidays across the winter from late November to early May in a programme that includes over 160 different skiing holidays.
• New Tignes Takeover finishes the season with huge social week in the Hotel Aiguille Percee.
• Adventurous new trips include Cat Skiing in North Macedonia, the ‘Powder Highway’ in Canada and Niseko, Japan.
• Return to Baqueira, Bormio, Arosa, Meribel and Arabba following a long break.
• New ski touring adventures to Carinthia.

There’s a new end of season Tignes Takeover week based in the 3* Aiguille Percee in Tignes Le Lac where up to 100 Ski Club members will have exclusive use of the hotel for a week.

There are several development weeks in the Alps for skiers from early intermediate level up to off-piste experts and ski tourers, but for adventure further afield then new trips to North Macedonia, British Columbia and Japan have also been launched.

Other new destinations to the programme include several resorts that haven’t featured since pre-Covid seasons. Baqueira in Spain is the location for the Pyrenean Powder Adventure and Baqueira Blast, Arosa for Ski and Spa, Meribel for on-piste and all mountain instruction and Arabba for off-piste adventure. The Austrian region of Carinthia is home to a new fully guided 6 night multi-day ski touring trip traversing the Goldberg group of mountains during early March.

Head of Freshtracks Holidays, Katy Ellis, said: “Following a hugely successful 2023-24 winter season with an increase in our skier numbers, we have launched several new holidays and new destinations across the Alps and further afield. There’s lots of the classic Freshtracks favourites such as the Premier Party in Tignes, off-piste in Engelberg and Obergurgl on-piste week, but as always, we have some interesting destinations where like-minded skiers can travel to, either as a group or on their own. We also have our very own chalets in Flaine and Chamonix, plus a number of short break options too. With six different ski holiday categories, five on-piste ski levels and four off-piste ski levels, there really is a place for every type of skier on a Freshtracks holiday.”

All Ski Club Freshtracks holidays are led by a Ski Club of Great Britain Rep and members can ski socially as a group. Some Freshtracks holidays also include qualified ski instructors or Mountain Guides.
