The Little Nell Snowcat, Aspen
The Little Nell Snowcat in Aspen is an exhilarating full day out on the slopes. Explore intermediate to expert terrain on 10-12 runs in a group of no more than 12 people. A well-deserved lunch and massage is provided in a wood-stove heated cabin on the slopes of Elk Mountain. Prices start from £322 per person based on a group of ten. Or, from £380 per person for individuals. The excursion is fully escorted by expert guides and offered twice each week between December and April.
Managing Director, Craig Burton of Ski Solutions said: “There’s so much more to the world’s ski and snowboard resorts than the slopes. British travellers are now embracing all manner of adventures to make their trips remarkable. Food has always been fundamental to a great ski holiday and gourmet touches. Whether a hot toddy in a snowy forest or organic snacks around an outdoor fire – are now joined on the menu by exceptional après ski suppers and surprises.”

The Ice Q Restaurant, Sölden
Few locations are better than the Ice Q restaurant in Sölden, which featured in the James Bond thriller, Spectre. The glass walls provide uninterrupted and unrivalled views of the Austrian Alps to stir diners, leaving the mixologists to shake the martinis. In Courchevel, enjoy savouring the renowned menu at Le Chabichou. Alternatively, guests can also join a cooking class with Michelin-starred Chefs Michel Rochedy and Stéphane Buron.

In the running for most romantic après ski is La Cabane de Bûcherons in Courchevel. Enjoy an unforgettable evening in a rather deluxe ‘woodcutter’s cabin’ where a traditional Savoyard candlelit dinner is served with wines. Guests can hike or snowmobile to the glamorous mountainside refuge and then sled home after dinner.
