Obergurgl, Switzerland

If you crave the soft white powder of the slopes as the weather cools, then skiing or snowboarding are the pastime of choice for you. But with experts finding it difficult to predict where the snow will fall, the safest bet is to head high to guarantee the white stuff. And Obergurgl in Austria is the highest skiing area, open for business from the middle of November.

The top of the peaks are heralded by the Top Mountain Star Bar, so by the time you reach the summit you can have a warm hot chocolate to melt your insides!

Obergurgl used to be fairly unknown to the majority of skiers and snowboarders, until a pair or snow hikers found the oldest natural human mummy, frozen in the ice. It was also the landing spot of the Swiss explorer Auguste Piccard, who had become the first to visit the stratosphere.

If you are sick of the up and down f the slopes and the freezing winds, then visit on e of the resorts many a la carte restaurants and sample the Austrian delights. Indulge in a tasty cheese fondue, or sample the aprs ski in some of the lively bars, where you can experience trendy wine bar style drinks or something more lively, depending on the destination.

It sits an hour and a half drive for the Innsbruck airport, and the snow is generally guaranteed in the winter. If you are planning on skiing or boarding this winter with your family, make sure you get Holiday Insurance to cover you from any breaks or frost burn!
