Special weeks

We also offer special snowshoeing weeks here.

Why not take the train?

You can leave London St Pancras or Ebbsfleet in the morning and be at your destination by the evening, making it an excellent (not to mention environmentally friendly) way to reach this holiday. You can relax right from the start of your journey as Eurostar services whisk you through the Channel Tunnel to connect with the world-famous French high-speed TGV trains in either Paris or Lille. We reserve seats for you, there is plenty of luggage space, and refreshments are available on board.

You may even break your journey in Paris if you are travelling via the capital. Sit back and enjoy a truly great rail journey! Look for the ‘by rail’ prices in the Prices & Travel section, where you will also find journey details.

Anyone can enjoy winter walking or snowshoeing – no previous experience or special technique is required – and both are wonderful ways to appreciate the snowy landscapes at entirely your own pace. Snowshoeing is particularly rewarding in that you can strike out across virgin snow, exploring areas inaccessible on skis or on foot, while winter walking is made easy with specially flattened paths and signposting that is designed so that it won’t disappear in a snow shower. Another great advantage, if one were needed, is that neither activity requires much in the way of equipment – you can wear normal waterproof walking boots for both, as snowshoes (rather like plastic tennis racquets) attach easily to everyday footwear.

On a winter walking week at the delightful Hotel Meisser in the sunny Engadine Valley, you can discover one of Switzerland’s best-kept secrets on foot, with two guided walks and one guided snowshoe excursion with your hosts and other guests included. The Engadine is a place where winter is truly magical and is characterised by frozen lakes, quintessentially Alpine scenery and picture-book villages whose streets transport you back in time as you walk amid the distinctive stone houses.
