February Half Term is when the mountains really come alive for families. Resorts are buzzing with energy, ski schools are in full swing and the snow is typically at its best. With brighter days and plenty going on both on and off the slopes, there’s no shortage of ways to enjoy your time in the mountains, from torchlit descents and toboggan runs to warming up with hot chocolate by the fire.
It’s the perfect time to make some proper mountain memories with the kids. Whether you’re teaching them to ski, racing them down the slopes or simply heading out for a snowball fight, you’ll head home with plenty of stories to tell and a serious case of goggle tan.
For a Half Term ski holiday, depart on a Saturday or Sunday and enjoy a full week in the mountains.

February Half Term is one of the most popular times for a family ski holiday. From gentle nursery slopes and family-friendly pistes to more challenging runs for confident skiers, there’s something for every ability. When you’re ready for a break from skiing, you can try everything from sledging and tubing to ice skating and tobogganing, or simply warm up with a hot chocolate by the fire.
With so much to see and do, Half Term is the perfect opportunity to make some proper mountain memories together. After a full day in the snow, there’s nothing better than heading back to your accommodation to relax while the kids burn off the last of their energy.
We’ve got plenty of options for where to ski at February Half Term, depending on what you’re looking for from your holiday. For a Half Term ski holiday in Europe, choose from some of the best resorts in the Alps, or across the pond.
February Half Term is one of the busiest weeks of the ski season, so it pays to plan ahead. From choosing the right type of accommodation to making the most of our ski deals, there are plenty of ways to get more from your family ski holiday.
Choosing the right accommodation can make all the difference to a family ski holiday. Our catered chalets offer a relaxed, homely base where everything is taken care of, from breakfast and afternoon tea to a delicious evening meal. Many chalets also offer family-friendly facilities such as cots and highchairs, while some are conveniently located close to the slopes or ski lifts.
For families who prefer to have their own space and more flexibility around mealtimes, our self-catered ski apartments are a great option. Or, if you’re looking for hotel facilities and services, our ski hotels offer everything from comfortable rooms to restaurants, bars and leisure facilities.
And if your little ones aren’t quite ready for ski school, we also have childcare options available to book in advance, including private nanny services. So whether they’re learning their first snowplough or simply enjoying their first experience of the mountains, there are plenty of ways for younger children to make the most of Half Term too.
Europe is the classic choice for a February Half Term ski holiday, with hundreds of resorts to choose from and easy access from the UK. With reliable snow, family-friendly slopes and plenty of activities beyond skiing, it’s easy to find a resort that suits everyone.

Plus, with offers including early booking discounts, all-inclusive ski packages and loyalty perks, there are plenty of ways to make your budget go further.
Canada offers something a little different. Head across the Atlantic to Whistler or Banff for a bigger adventure, with vast ski areas, reliable snow and spectacular mountain scenery. The journey is longer than skiing in Europe, but the reward is a Half Term holiday that feels like a real escape, with plenty to explore both on and off the slopes. From Whistler’s lively resort atmosphere to Banff’s dramatic Rocky Mountain setting, both offer an unforgettable experience for families and skiers of all abilities.
