  1. Waterproof snowboard jacket

  2. Waterproof snowboard trousers

  3. Gloves or mittens

  4. Ski / snowboard socks (comfortable feet are essential when skiing and so it is worth investing in a few good pairs of socks)

  5. Thermal base layers (it is advisable to layer your clothing when skiing so that you can remove layers if you become too hot and replace them when needed)

  6. Light fleeces/jumpers (to layer over a base layer and under your ski jacket) – thick jumpers can be bulky and restrict movement when worn under a ski jacket

  7. Warm hat (we recommend wearing a helmet when skiing, but this can be hired in resort)

  8. Goggles and good quality sunglasses (the sun is extremely powerful in the mountains and the reflection off the snow can be very strong on the eyes)

  9. Sunscreen/block for the face and neck

  10. Winter insurance – it is essential that your travel insurance covers you for winter sports as medical services are not cheap

  11. Reusable water bottle

  12. Mobile phone (essential for safety / bring an extra portable charger if you have one)

FAQ's

Are airport transfers included?

Yes, we will coordinate all your airport transfers on your behalf. These transfers are carried out by reputable airport transfer companies, and we offer flexibility in accommodating your arrival and departure times. Having this service arranged for you not only alleviates a significant source of stress but also results in substantial cost savings.

Will I be with other singles?

Yes, ColdFusion caters exclusively for people travelling alone and we can guarantee that you will be with other singles whichever week you choose. The people we accommodate are social people looking to enjoy a traditional chalet holiday with a ready-made group of friends to socialise with in daytime and the evenings.

Is this a dating holiday?

Absolutely not. Some people travel with us who are in relationships, but for whatever reason have left their partners at home. We also welcome couples, where they are social people and want to enjoy the company of like-minded people in an adult environment.

Will I have to share a bedroom?

We offer double en-suite bedrooms for sole occupancy and also twin bedrooms for two people to share.  We allocate room-share based on gender and age-range.

What the difference between a standard twin bedroom and a premium twin bedroom?

The Premium Twin bedrooms are more spacious and include a small seating area with a sofa and TV. Additionally, the two top-floor Premium rooms feature a balcony.

The Premium Twin on the ground floor is a large one-bedroom apartment, offering two double beds, a large bathroom, a walk-in wardrobe, plus a sofa and kitchenette.

The Standard Twin rooms are standard size, with two single beds and en-suite facilities.

If I choose the shared accommodation and the chalet is not at full capacity, will I be responsible for the cost of the additional bed in my twin bedroom?

No, if you opt for a shared bedroom, Cold Fusion will pair you with another guest for sharing. In cases where the chalet isn't fully occupied, there won't be any single supplement fee.

I have never tried skiing / snowboarding - can I still book a holiday?

Yes, we welcome people of all abilities, including complete beginners. Our team understands how daunting it can be to put on a pair of skis/snowboard for the very first time and will be on hand to help you every step of the way. We can organise lessons (both group and private), equipment hire and lift pass for you to make your first day as stress-free as possible – after all you will have a lot to concentrate on! After your lessons, we can show you the best places to practice your new-found skills with people who are of the same level as you.

I'm a snowboarder - will I be the only one?

Most probably not.... We have seen a growth in the popularity of snowboarding over the past few years and tend to have a 50/50 split of skiers and snowboarders in the chalet. Our chalet hosts and guides both ski and snowboard and so you will always have somebody to snowboard with.

Yes. You will need to purchase personal travel/holiday insurance before you depart the UK and ensure that you will be covered for winter sports for the duration of your ski trip or for any medical treatment required during jungle hikes, summer sport etc for our costa rica trip.

Which ski pass do I need for Chamonix?

There are three ski passes available in Les Houches & Chamonix.

If you are a beginner and want to ski just the local area of Les Houches, you can purchse the chapest 'Les Houches Only Ski Pass'.

For anyone else intermediate levelor above you will require the 'Mont Blanc Unlimited ski pass' which covers all 5 mountains including the local ski area of Les Houches and the main 4 mountains in Chamonix, as well as the surround resorts of Courmayeur in Italy or the Evasion Ski Area including St Gervais, Megeve and Les Contamines in France.

It also covers the extra mountain in Chamonix called the Aiguille Du Midi. This is a very famous mountain as it is the highest in Europe and it is where a famous off-piste skiing route starts from called the ‘Valle Blanche’. Many people come to Chamonix to see the views from the top of this lift and so we recommend if you get the chance to go up this lift to do so.

Therefore if you are coming to Chamonix for off-piste skiing, amazing views, or a good intermediate to advance skier it is well worth opting for the Mont Blanc Unlimted Ski pass.

On the other hand if you are a beginner and on a budget we recommend opting for the Les Houches ski pass.

SUMMARY

  • Total Beginners: Don’t pre-book a ski pass and buy it on a day to day basis for the area where you are having your lesson.

  • Intermediates to Advanced: Mont Blanc Unlimted ski pass.

How many days skiing can I do in my week holiday?

It is possible to do 8 days skiing within a week holiday in Chamonix.

You are able to do this as, unlike many other companies, we are flexible on your arrival and departure times when staying in the resort. This means it is possible to ski in the afternoon on the arrival day and in the morning before your departure flight as well as the 6 days in between.

When staying in Cervinia or Serre Chevalier its normally a 6 day ski week as the transfer times are more fixed.

Can I come with my friend or partner?

Yes, we welcome couples in all of our chalets and a small group of friends travelling together if the people travelling are looking for a social holiday. (max 4 poeple that know eachother)
