An Alpine adventure to remember
ElementalUK runs its famous school ski trips throughout the winter season to a range of hand-picked resorts in the French and Italian Alps.
Schools re-book year after year because we know just what makes a school ski holiday into the trip of a lifetime. Our MD Dany Duncan has been working in the mountains for almost 40 years and his experience really shines through, with hand-picked resorts, welcoming hotels, experienced instructors, student-safe ski areas, a full programme of après-ski activities and round-the-clock back-up from the Elemental team.
