An amazing opportunity to join other over 50s skiers on a fabulous holiday in the mountains. Enjoy a warm and friendly atmosphere in the comfort of a luxurious chalet. Engage other like-minded individuals in conversation and explore the pistes in a group or alone. Best of all: No single supplements!

It doesn't matter if you are travelling alone or in a small group, you have come to the right place. Welcome to The Ski Gathering — social and over 50s single holidays for skiers and snowboarders of all abilities. Meet other like-minded over 50s people on our skiing holidays for over 50s, they are equally suited to day-one beginners and seasoned veterans alike.

A typical day on our Over 50s Ski Holidays

No single supplement. What does that mean?

The single-occupancy supplement is generally the biggest headache for individual skiers travelling alone. Usually, solos have to pay a premium for 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.

It was amazing, just so much fun.I have just returned from my 1st over 50s singles holiday, it was amazing, just so much fun. I arrived with a certain amount of trepidation, sharing a chalet with 17 strangers and sharing a room with someone you have never met, my neighbours thought I was mad. And when I saw the size of the bedroom I was even more worried. However I need not of worried at all, with the help of Belinda, Emma and their team we all soon relaxed and got to know each other and have lots of fun and laughs. By the end of the week we were all great buddies and thinking what we could do next year. Belinda (we nicknamed her the duracell bunny because she has so much energy) saw that we got our ski legs by showing us round the mountains (and restaurants). She got our lift passes, set up a chalet What's App Group, helped with the skis, bought the drinks at the bar, booked the restaurant for the night off, organising taxis etc. The rest of the chalet team are great, they really want to help and make your stay as good as it can be. The food is fantastic, helped by too much wine and beer. Other than the bedrooms, (they are very small) the chalet is perfect, the swimming pool, sauna, and hot tub are great. The ski shop and lovely little Sherpa shop beneath the chalet, the slopes just across the road as was the bus stop if you wanted to go further afield. I hope to be back.

I will be back!I joined an over 50s group in les gets for the first time. We had a fabulous time. Everyone had come on their own. Some were single, others had partners not able to ski this year. Belinda sorted everything out seamlessly for us and was patient with the endless messages . The chalet hosts Emma, Belen, Kiki and Amy kept us very well fed and watered and the chalet clean and tidy. We skied in different groups each day depending on what people wanted to do . Many of us met for a pre dinner de brief in the hot tub most evenings. I will be back!

hopefully repeat in the future!An excellent week skiing with a group of very likable, sociable and accommodating over 50's. With a wide range of ski abilities there was always a group to join which made the time on the slopes as enjoyable as the time spent together in the chalet. As with many ski chalets the rooms were a little cramped, particularly the bathroom but were clean and served their purpose. The Ski Gathering team were excellent. Belinda did a great job of orchestrating proceedings during the week whilst Emma, Belu, Ava and Kiki always ensured we had all we needed in the way of food and beverages. The food quality was some of the best I have had on a ski holiday so thanks to the central kitchen staff of Candice, Emma, Katie and Kerry for creating some amazing dishes. A very good week which I will hopefully repeat in the future!

a great formulaIts a great formula that Ski Gathering has and the Over 50's Group worked well together with all levels of solo booked skiers able and willing to ski together. I will look to book again. All the Chalet hosts were very friendly, offering delicious food & drink. A welcome alternative for Apres Ski was the Chalet outdoor hot tub which proved to be popular with our Group.

Brilliant visitBrilliant visit, my first with Ski Gathering, but I hope not my last. On Solo holiday for over 50's (My family do not ski) and this was also main reason others were on trip. The Ski Gathering Rep/Organiser was exceptionally Good - Belinda, one of best ever experienced in over 45 years of skiing trips, caring, organised, really helpful, and guided us several days showing us the area etc. Nothing seemed to much trouble for her. The Staff in the Chalet, were also excellent Emma, Ava, Belen, & Ami (hope I get spellings right) all helpful & nice. I had a food allergy as well as a food preference, and each and every meal (and even after ski cakes/snacks) fully took these into account with dishes adapted or changed as needed - also I was never made to feel that I or the changes were a problem - Excellent. Because of the combined efforts of Belinda, Emma & Team (that includes the behind the scenes people in office/kitchens) the whole trip was a great success with everyone really getting on well together. Thank you Rooms: Small (typical French to ski areas) but nicely fitted, comfortable with everything you might need. Nearby activities: Ski Holiday, but also Toboggan track opposite. Walkability: Less than 5 minutes to Chair lift that connects to rest of ski system and possible to ski back to base in good conditions. Bus stop also less than 5 minutes away, where free bus for all 4 local circuits (all to centre) call at as well as other buses. I walked to centre as only 10-15 minutes. Food & drinks: Nicely presented often local food, ample portions. As mentioned above great that my special diet fully catered for. Noteworthy details: Really nice to have own Spa, small Sauna (3 person) and a nice but small Swimming Pool

all top notchAs it was my first experience of both the Ski Gathering and a Solo Over 50 week there were some slight concerns on how it would work out. No need, from start to finish a great week with a great group from all walks. The chalet, facilities, food and wine were all top notch and were only bettered by the wonderful team looking after us, Emma, Belin, Ava, Kiki, Amy and Belinda take a bow. I'll be back :)

I'll do this again for sureFirst time for me doing a solo ski holiday and sharing a room with a stranger. I was in an over 50's week and instantly met 17 people who wanted to ski and socialise. By half way through the week I'd learned all the names There were mixed ski abilities but there was always a group of friendly people to ski with. Belinda organised us when needed, gave us plenty of info and acted as an unofficial ski guide early on in the week, which was great. I was in a twin room which was fairly cramped. Very limited storage. The chalet is modern and warm with good facilities. Ski lockers right there and many people made use of the jacuzzi, sauna and pool daily. Nearest ski lift is max 200m and others available by regular ski buses. The chalet team of Emma, Belu, Ava and Kiki looked after us well and served great food, cooked in the main by the central kitchen team (smart idea that !) of Candice, Emma, Katie and Kerry. Thanks all - I'll do this again for sure

I'm looking forward to a return tripSolo Over 50s - highly recommended. Great fun, lovely mix of guests. The chalet staff, Emma, Ava, Belin & Kiki, were just so thoughtful, friendly and efficient, always quietly in the background, making our much needed holiday a smooth, effortless success, thank you all. The food was yummy, so compliments to the chefs, savoury and sweet, all much enjoyed. This was my first solo experience and first shared room experience with 2 strangers (friends now). The holiday was lots of fun and the skiing and chair lifts exhilorating & exhausting, and the snow was great. Not forgetting the haven of the pool, sauna, and hot tub, all together a splendid mix of all the ingredients of a fab holiday with my 16 new pals in a comfy welcoming environment. To close the planning in advance with Belinda and all the office team was superb and appreciated. I'm looking forward to a return trip

I will definitely be backI just spent an 'Over 50's' week in Les Suites de l'Alpe and it was brilliant, walking distance (ca 150m) from the Perrieres chair. I was the only over 50's guest but the service from the chalet girls and host was impeccable. The food was amazing too and they are more than happy to accommodate any type of meal. The host made a special effort to give advice and help on where to ski and where to eat on the mountains. Wetzet chalet was a big hit! I will definitely be back.

best ski holiday everFabulous , fun, best ski holiday ever with the Ski Gathering. Belinda was an extremely dedicated and entertaining host who took us to and showed us some brilliant places to ski and managed the groups well accordingly to ability. The food and free drink was phenomenal and Imie and Rachael could not have been more efficient or nicer to have around looking after our needs. Might have been an over 50s holiday but there was not one in the group who most nights managed to act like they were 18 again. Already looking forward to seeing next years programme and rebooking.

altogether brilliant!At 69 I felt my skiing days were over ( my friends all said they were too old to learn to ski) then I discovered Ski Gathering! I had the most wonderful time in my chalet for over 50s and I shall be there every year as long as I am fit enough to ski. Belinda is amazing! She looks after a lot of people yet she gets to know and cares for everyone as an individual. Our chalet was warm and comfortable with lots of space for partying and the food was excellent. Rachel and Immy were always there with a smile inspite of all the mess we left for them to clear up. They were flexible with our meal times and never complained when some of us returned late for our chosen meal time. They were friendly, welcoming and altogether brilliant! I will definitely return- hopefully next year.

I had a fantastic timeThis was my first visit to Les Suites de l'Alpe and to a 50+ solo holiday. From the very start it was well organised and very friendly. Belinda made us feel very welcome and explained how things worked, from ski passes and buses, to paying for 13 different drinks in the mountain cafe! Immy, Rachel and Freya were very efficient and obliging, coping with all our different requests and late appearances. I very much enjoyed my vegetarian option, which had lots of variety and was filling and tasty. Overall I had a fantastic time skiing and staying at the chalet, thank you to all the hosts.

...beyond my expectations!This was my first experience of a Ski Gathering trip and I wouldn't hesitate to go again. I opted for the over 50s week. So well organised in so many ways- airport transfers, communication and support. The staff- Belinda, Freya, Sophie and Imi were amazing-nothing was too much for them. Food and accommodation was superb and everyone always had a smile for us no matter what the situation. The whole concept of Ski gathering is fab, thank you.

Meet other over 50s skiers and snowboarders on a social ski holiday

We have decades of combined experience providing first-rate ski holidays. So we understand that a first solo over 50s ski trip can seem a little daunting, especially if you're travelling alone as a solo skier. Well, we're here to help. At The Ski Gathering, you won't be on your own — you'll be sharing with other wonderful over 50s guests who are in the same boat as you.

When are you too old go skiing?

You are never too old to ski! We have guests of all ages join our holidays. Typically the more mature skiers tend to be much more capable on the mountain as they have the experience of many season. Skiing when done sensibly is actually quite a safe sport with low speed falls tending to be a relatively soft affair.
