Unseasonably warm weather across Europe and very heavy rainfall is forcing some ski resorts to close lifts and runs, and in some cases pause operations altogether ⛷️
, 19 resorts are closed. These include: Espace Villard Corrençon , Ax 3 Domaines, Gourette, Lélex/Crozet, Alpe du Grand-Serre – La Morte, Les Brasse, Le Mont-Dore, Menthières, Ventron, Lac Blanc, Gavarnie/Gèdre – Les Espécières, Mijoux/La Faucille, Artouste, Ballon d’Alsace, Cordon, Chastreix – Puy de Sancy, La Pierre St Martin, La Dôle/Les Tuffes and Gérardmer – La Mauselaine.
Cancelling for a refund isn’t guaranteed, nor moving your dates to later in the season without incurring additional charges. Few travel insurance policies will cover cancellation, unless it’s for a special activity such as ski touring or heli-skiing. Some insurers will cover the financial loss of unused lift passes, ski lessons and equipment hire – check the small print and request written confirmation of closures as proof to support a claim.
