Award-winning French Alps ski specialist, Peak Retreats, has launched a selection of February half-term ski holidays by train via Paris. The holidays, for the week commencing 15/02/2025, are on sale now and include travel by train to a choice of resorts and accommodation that are all easily reachable by rail.

Skiers can take the Eurostar to Paris, then take the high-speed TGV from Paris to Bourg St Maurice, which allows easy access to La Rosière, Peisey-Vallandry and Tignes via a taxi transfer.

The Peak Retreats team can also put together bespoke options to a range of alternative ski resorts from stations on the route including Moûtiers.

Alison Willis, General Manager, Peak Retreats said: “Travelling to the mountains by train makes for a great value (and greener) alternative to flying. The train can be cheaper than flying on peak dates such as school holidays, and skiers can take plenty of luggage without the extra cost for ski carriage. Train travel allows skiers to get closer to their destination and to make their journey part of their holiday. We know that lots of our clients with families are interested in trying the train, so we wanted to make this option easier for them at February half-term.”
