It's a skier's delight! Eurostar Snow train tickets are now on sale.

For snow enthusiasts, the journey can be as invigorating as the destination itself. The Eurostar Ski Train, departing from the iconic London St. Pancras International, promises just that - an unforgettable ride through some of France's most scenic landscapes before arriving in the heart of the French Alps. The Eurostar Snow train will welcome travelers on board from 16 December 2023 to 4 February 2024. It’ll depart every Saturday to the slopes and return back on Sundays.

Your itinerary

Starting your journey from the bustling cityscape of London, the train pulls into Lille, a northern French city revered for its rich cultural tapestry. Change here for the Eurostar Ski Train. From there, the real alpine voyage begins as the train takes you towards the towering peaks of the Alps. Here it is making strategic stops at:

Chambéry

Known as the gateway to the French Alps, Chambéry is a blend of historical charm and natural beauty. Its old town is a maze of narrow streets, colorful houses, and ancient landmarks.

Albertville

Recognized globally for hosting the 1992 Winter Olympics, Albertville is a mix of modern sports facilities and picturesque mountain landscapes. A perfect place to get into the winter sports mindset!

Moûtiers

Often dubbed as the 'Gateway to the Three Valleys', Moûtiers is the ideal pitstop for those heading to renowned ski resorts like Val Thorens or Méribel.

Aime-la-Plagne

As the name suggests, this stop provides easy access to La Plagne, one of the world's most popular ski destinations. With a myriad of slopes and snow activities, it's a winter wonderland awaiting exploration.

Bourg-Saint-Maurice

The final stop, Bourg-Saint-Maurice is the stepping stone to paradises like Les Arcs. Nestled in the Tarentaise Valley, it’s an alpine town filled with charm, offering an authentic mountain lifestyle.

The Eurostar Snow train’s final stop is Bourg-Saint-Maurice. There you’ll find coaches to Val Thorens, Val d'Isère, Courchevel, La Tania, Tignes, Meribel, and Les Menuires.

Why the Eurostar Ski Train Stands Out

• Eco-Friendly: Reduce your carbon footprint by choosing rail over air. Begin your winter holiday with a commitment to the environment.
• Convenience: Say goodbye to tiresome airport queues and exorbitant baggage fees. The Ski Train welcomes all your ski gear with open arms.
• Picturesque Views: The transformation of the landscape from urban sprawl to mountain grandeur is a sight to behold. Experience France in all its varied beauty.
• Seamless Transitions: The strategic stops ensure that you're never too far from your favorite ski resorts. Once you disembark, the slopes are just a stone's throw away.

Tips for the Ride:

• Early Bird Gets the Worm: This train is a favorite among winter sports aficionados. Ensure you book your seats well in advance.
• Lille Layover: If your itinerary allows, spend a few hours exploring Lille's cobbled streets and lively markets.
• Check Baggage Policies: While the Ski Train is accommodating, it's also great for your luggage with an allowance of 2 bags and your ski-equipment.

In Conclusion

The Eurostar Snow train isn’t merely about reaching a destination, but embracing the journey. It's a beautiful amalgamation of comfort, convenience, and scenic beauty, ensuring that your alpine escapades begin long before you hit the slopes.
