Amidst the Christmas chaos, many of us start planning our trips for 2026, with skiingbeing one of the most popular holiday activities during the first few months of the year. However, by the time you factor in your ski pass, they can become notoriously expensive. Happily, there are four European resorts that start from just £320 per person, with everything included.
A booking website called Heidi allows travellers to search for their desired skiing package holiday with any dates or locations they prefer, bringing up the best deals. Users can also choose specific filters for a package, such as beginners, advanced, families, large ski areas, apres-ski, or opt for a short transfer.

Heidi noted that for those who don't want ski passes included in the package, prices are expected to be even cheaper. Travellers can also search 'anywhere' on the Heidi website for further deals if they're flexible on their location.
Co-founder of Heidi, Marcus Blunt shared: "If you’re not restricted to school holidays, go skiing in January - it’s off-peak and therefore usually the cheapest time and the slopes are quieter. Snow conditions are great in January, so you can also choose from lower altitude resorts, which can be cheaper than some of the bigger, higher-altitude resorts.
"If budgets are tight, go for a long weekend or short mid-week break. It may sound obvious, but with 4 or 5 nights instead of a full week, you still get lots of skiing in, but it really brings the overall cost down. If you’re flexible with your dates, use our flexible dates search filter - you could save hundreds by flying on mid-week days versus over a weekend.
"Everyone loves a bargain, but our customers prioritise getting great value over just the lowest price. Price matters, of course, but getting the quality experience they want for their money - with flexibility, convenience, and peace of mind - matters more. That’s where Heidi helps travellers make smart choices."
