Time to upgrade your chalet holiday? Top 10 Heliski Chalets
Elemental Adventure •
The ‘ski chalet’ was born in the Alps and we think the concept is still the best way of creating shared skiing memories of a lifetime with a group of family or friends . A private lodge offers unrivalled flexibility and privacy, whether you want to tailor the dinner menu to your taste or wear your thermal underwear to breakfast. Meanwhile, the levels of luxury available have escalated to astronomical levels.
However, with the focus on the property, once you step outside the door of most chalets, the ski experience can be underwhelming – snaking lift queues, icy snow and dodging crowds might have you making a beeline back to your hot tub earlier than you had hoped.
Our Top 10 Heliski Chalet Portfolio elevates the ski experience to complete the dream trip by adding a private helicopter and access to vast mountain ranges blanketed in deep untracked snow.
