Exhilarating Heli-Skiing Packages

Troll Peninsula, Iceland

Combine sea-to-summit heli-skiing with bubbling hot springs and the magical Northern Lights during an action-packed escape on Iceland’s Arctic maritime snowpack, during which you can ski from the top of a mountain down to the oceanfront for a surfing lesson on the same day. Northern Iceland’s otherworldly landscapes are easily reachable from both London and New York, meaning you could hit the slopes on the same day you travel. With the heli-skiing season lasting until the end of June, Iceland offers a unique ski adventure in midnight sun.

You’ll stay at Deplar Farm, a converted sheep farm located in the remote Fljót Valley, which boasts some of the world’s highest average snowfall. Sleeping up to 32 people in 13 ensuite bedrooms, this stunning property is ideal both for corporate retreats and leisure escapes with groups of family or friends. There are two helipads for quick access to the slopes, while back at the chalet guests can relax in a geothermal pool, hot tubs, sauna and steam room, as well as a private guide who is on hand throughout your stay. Deplar Farm even has its own spa, along with an exclusive bar for après-ski festivities.

Valgrisenche Valley, France

Discover incredible glaciated runs as you head off-piste in the Valgrisenche Valley on France’s Italian border, tackling exhilarating 5,000ft descents before heading back up in the chopper to do it all again. You can easily hop over the border for a taste of Italian culture, while Sainte Foy, Val d’Isère, Tignes, Les Arcs and La Rosière offer alternative ski terrain within a 30-minute drive.

Your base, Chalet Pelerin, is nestled in an authentic farming village high in the valley, offering total privacy. The beautiful property is ideal for a family break, sleeping up to 14 people in four king bedrooms, a bunkroom with four twin beds and a children’s playroom with built-in twin bunkbed. There’s also an indoor pool, outdoor hot tub, Finnish sauna and steam room, as well as a private guide who is on hand throughout your stay. For an extra-special evening, enjoy a bonfire and traditional French dinner at the property’s historic farmhouse outpost, the Alpage.
