Head to the quiet side of the mountain for a short snow break in the Alps or northern Europe. Spend your time winter walking, cross-country skiing, snowshoeing or even dog-sledding; seek out the aurora borealis on a Northern Lights break to Tromsø; or just take things easy and enjoy your magical surroundings.
It’s astonishing how much you can pack into a short winter break. Our snow breaks in the Alps complement our week-long snow holidays, with the same emphasis on winter walking, snowshoeing, cross-country skiing and alpine skiing in timeless villages away from the crowds. In northern Norway, you can go in search of the Northern Lights and try your hand at dog-sledding.
Whatever you choose for your snow break, we’ll help you to make the most of your precious few days away by providing an information pack full of suggestions of what to see and do, so that you return home feeling refreshed and fulfilled.
Inntravel offers snow weekends in Switzerland, Austria, Germany and Norway. To seek out the Northern Lights, head to Tromsø – our breaks include a guided excursion after nightfall in search of the aurora borealis, and by day you have the chance to go dog-sledding or take a reindeer safari. If you’d simply like to enjoy the snow, we recommend Pertisau, Kandersteg, Fuschl or Ramsau bei Berchtesgaden.
