Group ski holidays

This year, go for group ski holidays! Because there is nothing more fun than enjoying the snow with friends and colleagues who have a great time sliding down the slopes, right?

The snow, the mountain, the laughter, the dinners after a day of hard work.... It's an adrenaline and friendship rush! But let's be honest: organizing a group of friends or family can be more complicated than going down a black run in the fog ;)

But, relax! Because at Esquiades.com we are here to make this mission a resounding success. We have prepared this guide with all the tricks and perfect destinations so you can organize unforgettable group ski holidays and, most importantly, enjoy 100%! Are you up for it?

How to choose the ideal group skiing destination

Choosing the resort is the first (and often the most debated) step.The key is to find a place that brings together that friend who only goes down green runs and that friend who goes anywhere.

Here are the key points to get right when organizing your group ski holidays:

Value all levels: The ideal destination for a group should have a wide variety of slopes. You need wide and safe beginner areas for those who are just starting out, as well as red and black runs or freeride for the more experienced. No one should be bored!
Group accommodation: It is not easy to fit 8, 10 or 15 people in one place. Look for resorts that offer spacious apartments or large chalets near ski lifts or with good connections. Ask if they have special discounts for large groups.
Atmosphere and après-ski: Are you the type to have dinner and go to sleep, or do you hang on until the last bar closes? The atmosphere off the slopes is crucial. Some resorts are more family-friendly and laid-back, and others have a vibrant nightlife. Make sure it fits the mood of your group.
Ease of access and internal transportation: A large group needs to be able to move around with some agility. Assess the proximity of the resort to airports or highways and that internal transportation (free shuttles, etc.) works well to avoid moving several cars each day.
Budget:The decisive factor. Try to find a destination that offers good bulk ski pass rates and affordable accommodations, especially if you are travelling outside of high season. The Pyrenees are usually a cheaper option for groups than the Alps.

Perfect ski resorts for groups in the Pyrenees

The Pyrenees are the ideal place for group travel:great atmosphere, spectacular gastronomy and prices that won't rattle your credit card.

Formigal-Panticosa (Aragonese Pyrenees)

It is one of the largest domains in Spain and is perfectly ski areaed.It is a 4 in 1, which allows the group to disperse by areas according to their level without anyone feeling limited.

The best thing for the group: its après-ski.The Marchica area at the base of Formigal is legendary for dancing with your boots on until nightfall. The party is guaranteed!

In addition, in Formigal there is a wide range of apartments and hotels with capacity for groups in the towns of Sallent de Gállego and Panticosa. On Esquiades.com you will find thebest ski deals in the Aragonese Pyrenees..

Grandvalira (Andorra)

Why is it an ideal destination for group ski holidays? Because ofits 210 km skiable and its slopes for all levels.It is the jewel of Andorra and offers a huge variety of options. Whether you are 5 or 20, Grandvalira has room for everyone. The connections between ski areas are fantastic.

The best thing for the group: The variety of non-skiing activities (snowmobiling, sledding, snowboarding, etc.).(snowmobiling, sledging, tubing). In addition, the Après-ski at L'Abarset (in El Tarter) is internationally known and is the perfect meeting point for the end of the day.

Activities and experiences to enjoy together beyond skiing

Group ski holidays don't end when you take off your boots.The best memories are created in the après-ski and activities.s.

Dinners in traditional restaurants: Booking a special dinner in a mountain hut or borda (often with a snowmobile or chairlift ride) is a great way to strengthen the group. The atmosphere is magical!
Snowshoeing: A relaxing and spectacular activity for those who do not want to ski or for a day of active relaxation. You will discover the mountain in a different way, away from the hustle and bustle of the slopes.
Spa and wellness: After a few days of leg-grinding, a moment of relaxation in a spa or spa centre (such as Caldea in Andorra) is the best medicine. Relaxation can also be enjoyed in a group!
Board game nightIf the budget is tight or it's too cold, a night in the apartment with board games, cards or a trivia game created by you can be as much fun as the most expensive party.

Practical tips for organizing a hassle-free group ski holiday.

Organization is the enemy of drama. Follow these tips to keep things running smoothly:

Choose a Group Captain (just one!): A ship with too many captains sinks. Choose a single person in charge of communication with the travel agency (us!), money collection and final bookings. This avoids duplication and confusion.
Create a common fund: Establishing a common pot for fixed expenses (meals, gas, etc.) simplifies things a lot. At the end of the holiday, settle up with an app like Splitwise or Settle Up.
Define the budget and stick to it:Be very clear from the beginning about the total cost (accommodation + ski pass + transportation). Offer options (e.g. cheaper apartment or superior hotel) for everyone to choose from and then respect the decision of the majority.

Your group ski holiday starts here!

You've got it all: the perfect destination, ideas for the spree and the tricks to organize it without fights. Group ski holidays are one of the most enriching experiences in the snow, and on Esquiades.com we want to help you make it happen.
