Europe’s most southerly resort, Sierra Nevada is just a short drive from Granada and Malaga airports. With slopes that boast spectacular views across the Mediterranean, it may not surprise you that this is also Europe’s sunniest resort. But you may be surprised to discover that, despite this, it’s still very snow-sure, thanks to the altitude and excellent snowmaking capabilities. This welcoming resort offers plenty to entertain your students in the evenings too, with shops, restaurants and other exciting après-ski activities.

Once you’ve booked, your dedicated Itinerary Coordinator will start work on the finer details. They’ll make sure your ski lessons, gear hire and après-ski activities are all sorted and they’ll take on most of the other admin tasks (so you can look forward to the trip as much as the kids).
