The ski season in March-April: the best deal to enjoy the mountains!

Why is spring skiing the ultimate smart choice?

When people think of skiing, they usually picture December to February, with snowflakes falling and bustling resorts. However, one season is often overlooked for a mountain getaway: spring! Skiing in March or April offers a completely different experience, with major advantages in terms of conditions, comfort, and budget.

1. Sunshine and longer days

One of the greatest joys of spring skiing is undoubtedly the weather☀️. The freezing cold of January gives way to much milder temperatures, meaning fewer layers to wear and, as a result, more comfort on the slopes.

Another major advantage: longer days! In February, the sun sets early, forcing skiers to head back to the resort by 4 PM. But in March and April, you can ski until late afternoon, enjoying stunning light and unforgettable sunsets over the mountains.

2. Fewer crowds, more fun 🎿

The February holidays are over, and with them, everyone has left! As a result, there’s less waiting at the ski lifts, the slopes are less crowded, and the experience is much more enjoyable for everyone.

For families with children, it’s also a great time to learn to ski in a more relaxed environment. Fewer people mean more attention for beginners and rapid progress in complete safety. By the way, Evolution 2 is offering promotions on ski lessons during the spring period, until the end of April 2025!

3. Some tips for the snow

Spring snow often gets a bad reputation, but it can be excellent if you know how to approach it:

  • In the morning: The snow is often hard and well-groomed. It's the perfect time to enjoy fast and enjoyable slopes. So, set the alarm early and head out to make the most of the slopes as soon as they open!
  • Around midday: With rising temperatures, the snow can become softer, especially at lower altitudes. It’s the perfect time to take a break on a terrace and soak up the sun! Or, you can try a completely different activity, like those offered by Evolution 2.
  • In the afternoon: If you want to keep skiing, choose north-facing slopes or higher altitudes to continue until the resort closes.

4. Ski for less: discounts at every level.

Spring skiing is also a great budget-friendly option. Ski resorts often lower their prices after the winter holidays:

  • Many resorts offer discounts on lift passes at the end of the season to attract skiers.
  • Whether it’s hotels, apartments, or chalets, prices drop.
  • Some equipment rental shops offer reduced rates on ski rentals.
  • Cheaper ski lessons, with discounts on spring lessons at Evolution 2, whether in group classes or private lessons.

5. Spring skiing: the perfect opportunity to try new activities.

Spring is also the perfect time to try new mountain activities:

  • Ski touring: With milder conditions, it's the ideal time to get started with this essential mountain activity.
  • Off-piste skiing: Always in safety and with an Evolution 2 instructor who will introduce you to this discipline.
  • Mountain paragliding: With the beautiful weather, why not try a flight over the snow-capped peaks?

6. Where to ski in spring? The best resorts to extend the season.

Not all resorts are suited for spring skiing, but some guarantee quality snow until April or even May, thanks to their altitude and exposure. Here are some must-visit resorts for late-season skiing:

  • Tignes & Val d'Isère: Located at over 2000m altitude, they offer excellent conditions until May.
  • Les Arcs & La Plagne: The Paradiski area is perfect for spring skiing, with many high-altitude slopes.
  • Chamonix: For freeride enthusiasts, this resort remains a reference for late-season skiing.
  • Val Thorens: At 2300m altitude, it’s the highest resort in Europe, perfect for high-quality spring skiing.

In summary: Why wait for next winter?

Spring skiing means sunshine, snow, less crowded slopes, and discounted prices. Instead of putting your skis away after February, take advantage of this perfect time to extend the season and experience a different side of the mountains at affordable prices.
