Welcome to The Ski Gathering. Social and single ski holidays for solo skiers and snowboarders looking to share a chalet with other outgoing individuals. Sociable twos and threes are welcome, too. Share the chalet, share the mountain, share good times. Our single ski holidays offer company when you want it, freedom when you don't.
Thinking of skiing independently this winter? You're not the only one. And you've come to the right place. The Ski Gathering are the solo skiing experts, with years of experience offering single ski holidays for skiers and boarders of all abilities. Our adult only ski holidays give you total flexibility: company when you want it, freedom when you don't. Best of all, there is no single supplement.
IndividualsThe Ski Gathering is ideal for sociable pairs or threes. Especially for mixed abilities. If your ski partner is less/more experienced than you, then you can both join forces with other skiers who are at your own level. Then meet up afterwards to tell them all about your adventures over drinks in the chalet. Plus you both get to meet lots of friendly people. A practical solution and a social experience. Also great for adult family members.
Small Groups

Some very nice guests have been posting up their favourite photos of The Ski Gathering Trips. Enjoy!
The Ski Gathering provide shared catered chalet holidays for adult individuals and small groups who would like to join a larger group of skiers and snowboarders.
You can't beat the friendly and sociable atmosphere of a winter ski chalet. A roaring log fire, a glass of the local tipple and good company to share memories of the day's skiing.
If you are travelling on your own then you can share a room with another independent traveller of the same sex, and so avoid any solo occupancy supplements. Read more...
The single occupancy supplement is usually the biggest headache for individual skiers travelling alone. Usually you have to pay for 50-100% of the empty bed, making ski holidays unaffordable for most singles and solo skiers. With The Ski Gathering, you'll be sharing a room so there is no single supplement. Sharing a triple or quad room, you pay slightly less than those sharing a twin.
Most of our solo ski holidays are strictly adults only. The only holidays which may contain kids are our "Just Ski" holidays.
These trips give you an option, not a compulsion, to join other skiers and snowboarders. If you'd like to join others to ski with, then great, and if you love to explore the mountains alone then that's perfect too. Everyone will be back in the chalet later to exchange stories either way.
Everyone on our trips is in the same boat. We share breakfasts and evening meals together, and outside that the choice is yours to join everyone for a sociable skiing day out or to go and blaze your own trail on the mountains.
The Ski Gathering offers a simple solution to an age-old dilemma: you want to go skiing and you've decided to go solo, but the single supplement makes it just too expensive. And maybe it would be nice to meet some other skiers and snowboarders who are in the same boat?
Enter The Ski Gathering. We bring together groups of like-minded solo skiers and snowboarders who would like to share some or all of their ski holiday experience. Sharing a room, there is no more single-occupancy supplement. And now you have company when you want it, freedom when you don't. It's that simple.
Frequently Asked QuestionsWe will be in touch shortly.
A first ski holiday can seem a bit daunting. Especially if you're travelling alone. If so, The Ski Gathering is here to help. We'll organise everything for you and answer all your questions. Plus, you'll be surrounded by sociable solo skiers who have been there themselves. Read more...
As well as answering all your questions, we can organise your ski lessons, your ski hire, your lift pass, etc. Anything else we can do? Just let us know.
BeginnersKids are great fun, but there are lots of reasons why grown-up company might be preferable on holiday. Our solo ski holidays are strictly adults-only. No children, no exceptions. Relax and let your hair down in the company of grown-ups. Good skiing, good company, good times.
Adults OnlyWe also cater for small groups who wish to join our ski holidays. Sometimes its nice to be part of a larger group while skiing but there isn't always a group available so why not join ours! Our ski holidays for solos, small groups (including adult family members) are perfect for couples and small groups of friends too!

Morzine is a lively, adult-friendly ski resort suited to all abilities, beginner or advanced. Situated in the heart of the world-renowned Portes du Soleil ski area, Morzine gives amazing access to some of the world's very best skiing, as well as its most integrated lift infrastructure. Beginners benefit from top-rate ski schools and steady blues running right into the resort centre. For a challenge, more advanced skiers and snowboarders head up the Chamoisiere for a nail-biting red or a thigh-burning black. Then, all meet up in any of Morzine's fantastic bars for a full debriefing at aprés ski.
Morzine
Les Gets is the definitive picture-postcard resort. If it is perhaps a little quieter than neighbouring Morzine, or our other resort of Meribel, this should be weighed against the traditional Savoyarde charm the village retains, not to mention the world-class skiing it offers. Les Gets is a dream destination for sociable groups with mixed abilities, offering plenty of convenient loops and tree-lined circuits, allowing the group to disperse and reconverge frequently and naturally throughout the day's skiing. Finish the day in the open-air aprés ski bar at the foot of the slopes.
Les Gets
Bulgaria's most popular ski destination, Bansko is arguably best known for the very good value it offers visitors. But there's much more to love than just the price tag. It's ideal for beginners and intermediates, with plenty of blues and reds to enjoy. After years of multi-million investment, Bansko now boasts the best lift infrastructure to be had anywhere in Bulgaria. It also offers the best snow, with good coverage from mid-December to mid-May. Traversing the Pirin National Park, Bansko skiing reaches heights over 2,500m. That's a vertical drop of over 1,500m.
Bansko
A modern, purpose-built ski resort, Meribel is in many ways the heart of The Three Valleys. With world-leading lift infrastructure right on your doorstep, every day is a chance to explore the full expanse of the world's largest ski area. Each evening, return to a resort which offers plenty of entertainment and a lively atmosphere. Vast in scale, 1500m village-centre altitude, enticing off-piste opportunities, wide open slopes, the list goes on. While still beginner-friendly, Meribel has plenty of challenging terrain to keep the more advanced skiers and snowboarders occupied, both on- and off-piste.
MeribelWe're very friendly and we'll be happy to help. Please just get in touch and we will do our best to answer all your questions and tell you more about what our ski holidays are like.
