Welcome Book
A ski holiday like no other.
The USA and Canada are renowned for having some of the best snow on the planet. Compared to Europe, the pistes are practically empty and always perfectly groomed. And with snowfall in some resorts averaging between 300 and 500 inches, there’s no shortage of snow!
Meanwhile, in Canada our range of hotels and lodges in British Columbia, Alberta & Quebec are surrounded by breathtaking mountains and lush natural forests. So there is always plenty to explore on foot as well as on skis.

The Parkway Inn Jackson Hole is probably one of our favourite ski resorts in the world as it is still a ‘proper’ cowboy town where you really feel as if you are in the Wild West. Jackson Hole is on the list of places to ski and board of many experts and good intermediates because of its reputation for fantastic big mountain skiing. The resort receives a massive amount of powder snow throughout the season which draws people in from far and wide. Jackson Hole celebrated the arrival of ‘Big Red’ in 2008. This is the tram that whisks skiers and boarders up 4000 feet from the base station to the top of Rendezvous Mountain.
