A question about : Cheaper ski holidays incl school holiday

I just wanted to share my latest ski holiday find. UCPA is a french non profit organisation set up, I believe, originally to allow young people to ski. However the offering is stretching and there are holiday weeks for over 40s (normally you must be under40) and for families at xmas/easter (best for over 7s as under 7s cannot take lessons, there is a cheap no ski price)

The price is for accomodation, full board, all ski hire, ski lessons, and most importantly, ski pass (this alone can cost Ј150+). The bar on site is also cheap as it is non profit. I have done theses hols as an under 40 but now looking at family option. The accomodation is like a good YHA. The food is awesome. Cost is Ј470 (no travel) with coach options too.

Here is the over 45s

If you are under 40 just look direct at the ucpa site for more choice.

  • Hi,
    I went snowboarding a few years ago with UCPA by myself and had a great time. Met loads of new people and learnt some new stuff. I stayed in Argentiere and the accommodation was basic and I shared with 5 other people but it was ok for the price. I believe that some of the other resorts are now much more modern.
    I would recommend UCPA
