Ski resorts to suit all tastes and budget

Ski season kicks off in earnest this month and Catherine Murphy has selected a range of options to suit all tastes and budgets.

SKIING in snow-sure resorts is our number one priority when booking a ski holiday but as resorts adapt to changing climate patterns, the trend is to offer a broader range of attractions, from Alpine coasters to piste-basher driving.

The good news is that the Alps have already had substantial snowfall and some glacier resorts are preparing to open for the season. If you’re quick off the mark, you could hit the slopes for the October bank holiday on the Stubai glacier or in Kitzbuhel, Austria.
