Snow + God + Fun = an unbeatable combination!
Ski Switzerland is the most fantastic and exciting week away in the Swiss Alps that you can imagine. It takes place each Easter in Lauterbrunnen in Switzerland.
Imagine a week in fantastic mountain scenery with a bunch of other young people and leaders: skiing during the day and learning more about God, faith, life and what it means to be a Christian in the 21st century each evening.
We partner with Gold Hill Holidays to run Ski Switzerland - they run many winter sports Christian holidays for adults and families.
Lauterbrunnen is a village in the heart of the Alps, with spectacular scenery. Our traditional creaky chalet is full of character, very welcoming and has plenty of hot water in the showers. We take the train or cable car up to the ski slopes, giving easy access to a variety of areas with views of the famous Eiger, Monch and Jungfrau.
Your lift pass, ski equipment and lessons, full board accommodation, insurance and coach travel are all included in the price. Not included in the price is your personal ski equipment: including helmets and ski clothing, food for the coach journeys and pocket money.
Coach travel is arranged from Chalfont St Peter, near to Gerrards Cross off the M40 junction 2, north west of London on the Friday evening around 5pm. You will need to get your young person to this meeting point yourself.
We ski/snowboard for 2 hours in the morning and 2 hours in the afternoon with an option for more if wanted if the conditions are good. One of these sessions will be a lesson with our team of English speaking qualified instructors. These are in groups of 8-10 organised by ability. The other session is with an experienced leader who will supervise the group staying on runs that are within the capability of the group.
Each evening after supper we have evening entertainments, followed by a short meeting with worship, Bible teaching and discussion.
