General Solo Ski Holidays
There's a fair few brands who host organised solo's weeks that are open to everyone, beginners and experts alike.
These are an opportunity to socialise with other solo travelers, whilst you can't guarantee anyone will be an absolute beginner like you, it's a great convivial atmosphere especially in the evenings when everyone comes together for afternoon tea and dinner.
Even if there isn't a fellow newbie, you'll find a lot of these people are more than happy to do some runs with you at your pace, as everyones there to seek out the positive social benefits of a group holiday.
Why not spend the mornings in a group ski lesson? These often have other solo's that you can get to know, have lunch with and maybe even ski with them or their group in the afternoons. Want a more personal approach? Find a private ski instructor, they're a short cut to great skills and a buddy all in one.
We recommend Maison Sport, who operate across resorts in the alps.
There's plenty more options for generalist solo weeks across the season, browse our collection of solo holidays via the button below.
