Winter Escape @ The Lodge at Spruce Peak

The Lodge at Spruce Peak is undeniably one of the finest ski resorts we have experienced in the United States. Located amidst the breathtaking beauty of snow-covered mountains, this resort offers an unparalleled winter vacation experience. Designed to resemble a charming mountain village, the resort boasts all the amenities one could desire for a perfect getaway. From outdoor hot tubs, where guests can soak in the warmth while admiring the snow-covered peaks, to the ice skating rink at the heart of the village, surrounded by variety of cozy restaurants and gift shops, there is something for everyone to enjoy. One of the most appealing aspects of the resort is the ability to spend an entire day without hitting the slopes. For those like us, seeking a winter escape, the resort offers endless opportunities for relaxation and enjoyment. As evening falls, the resort transforms into a magical wonderland, illuminated by twinkling lights that adorn every corner, creating a truly enchanting atmosphere. Our stay at The Lodge at Spruce Peak in Vermont was nothing short of spectacular. From the moment we arrived until the time of our departure, we were captivated by the charm and beauty of this remarkable destination. #vermont #winter #skiresorts

Niseko - The snowiest place on Earth!

Niseko is the most famous ski resort in Japan and perhaps the world, known for having light powder snow. The winter alpine scenery is definitely breathtaking to say the least. It is 2.5hrs drive from Chitose Airport. It comprises 4 interlinked ski resorts – Grand Hirafu, Hanazono, Niseko Village and An’nupuri – renowned for its consistency and quality of powder snow throughout the winter making it a perfect place to ski. Averaging around 15m+ of snow each season, it’s a serious contender for snowiest place in the world. I have not visited any snowier place than Niseko and this was corroborated by my ski instructor from the UK who was previously based in Austria. Hinode Hills located within Niseko Village is a five star apartment hotel which offers spacious living and sleeping area with each room having floor to ceiling windows overlooking the mountains. Transportation is easy and convenient as the hotels within Niseko Village offer free scheduled bus to all guests. #2022wintervacation #niseko #tripblazers #winterwonderland #wintergetaway #mytripvlog #nisekovillage #hokkaido #globetrotter #traveladdict #bespoketravel #luxurytravel #skiing #skiresorts

Sheraton Hotel at Changbaishan Ski Resort

It’s almost winter time so it’s time to plan your ski trip! 🤩 If you’re planning to go to Changbai mountain, then Sheraton can be your consideration. It is one of the more affordable option with decent facilities and not far from the ski resort itself. Room was good, all ski resort tickets are included (except clothes rental) and they have big gym, too, that is bigger than The Westin’s. The only drawback is that you’d need to walk outside to go to the swimming pool which is located inside The Westin building, and that it is one of the father away hotel location from the Hannasan hotspring resort (Hyatt is the nearest). Tips: Check the weather forecast before you go. It would probably nicer to have bright and sunny days during your stay. But hey, some blizzard would add up to your winter experience! _______ Address - Fusong County, Baishan, China (one area with The Westin, swimming pool only at The Westin building) Ambiance/Facilities - Ski Resort Highlights - a more affordable accommodation with good access to Ski Resort (vs. Holiday Inn that is located super high up the snow mountain) Avg. Price per Person - USD 400 Rating - 4.0/5.0 #mytripvlog #skiresorts #wintergetaway #skitrip #china

China’s largest ski resort!🏂⛷🎿

Getting There - 2 hours by car from Chengdu, need to take cable car up to the mountain Attractions - Xiling Ski Resort Hotels - Scandina Hotel Food & Restaurants - Xiling Ski Resort Shopping - Xiling Ski Resort Xiling Ski Resort is located in Sichuan Province and around 2 hours by car from Chengdu city. Once you arrive in Xiling, you will need to take a cable car to access the mountain and it costs ¥120 round trip. Once up in the mountain, everyone need to take a free bus that bring to Xiling Ski Resort. We chose to stay at Scandina Hotel that is up in the mountain, so it means we needed to carry our bags until we reach the hotel that is 5min walking from the bus station. We left our big luggage in Chengdu and only brought skowboard clothes, boots and helmet with us to Xiling, I reccomend you travel light if you also choose to stay in the hotel up in the mountain. Speaking about Scandina Hotel, it is the best considering it’s location, specially if you like to wake up early and go snowboard/ski on the first time in the morning, because you save the time of queuing and taking the cable car from the bottom of the mountain. But the staff is not really helpful and not prepared to receive foreign guests. Also meals are not great, there is only chinese food and quality is not good, but you don’t really have many choices around. Speaking about the Ski Resort, me and my husband already snowboard and we had our equipments, but you can rent all there! There are lots of kids and families that actually go to plan in the base and not go up to the mountain and do sports. There are not many Medium/Advanced trails and they are very short, in the end we spent more time in the lift than actually enjoying snowboarding. I would say it is ok to go if you live around and have no other option or if you are a beginner and want to learn go ski/snowboard or have kids! #skiadventure #staycation #wintergetaway #skiresorts

Bucket List CHECKED! My very FIRST Ski!

And it was WORTH IT! I was born in tropical country so the sight of snowy mountain excites me so much! Never ever tried skiing before and I must say, it was fun only on a gentle slope. The speed is apparently not my thing 😂 Fell so many times (in so many different positions) but happily reporting I’m back without serious injury (expect sore knees and calves). Overall happy with the experience and read through some more details below that might be useful if you plan to go! Tips: 1. Check weather forecast and if possible choose a sunny day to visit! You can see the difference from my photos, the day I tried ski it was snowing badly but the next day it was all blue sky and sunny! 2. They have WechatMiniApp to hire a professional coach for different levels (ski or snowboard), but usually full on same day. BOOK BEFORE YOU GO! Search 长白山度假区社员 on Wechat. Do not choose hotel’s suggestions, illegal coach and definitely not safe for beginners (don’t fall for the cheaper price). 3. Although most hotels are international chains, it is not so easy to communicate in English. Equip yourself with basic conversational skill and vocabulary (or just ask them to send messages to Wechat so you can translate) 4. Ski gears: boots, boards, and helmet are usually included in hotel room’s price (check when you book your hotel). Additional rental: jacket & pants ¥60, goggles ¥40. And you’ll need ¥2000 as deposit to activate Ski Card (used for all these rentals, taking ski lift, magic carpet, and gondola). It’ll be fully refunded on the last day. ———————— Getting There - take a flight to Baishan Changbaishan Airport (NBS) and there are red shuttle buses on parking lot taking you to most hotels (just tell the driver which hotel are you going to, they’ll point to the right bus). Around 20mins drive to hotels on Wanda Ski Resort. 2hours+ to North Slope’s hotel, like Crowne Plaza. Attractions - Ski Resort Hotels - plenty of options depending on your budget and preferences. • closest to Ski Entrance: Wanda Hotel / Hyatt & Park Hyatt. • closest to Hannasan Hotspring: Hyatt & Park Hyatt. • Westin & Sheraton location is slightly farther to main ski entrance but still walkable. • Holiday Inn has its own cable car to the main area, but rather far and also directly on a high slope. Definitely not for beginners. • Crowne Plaza is in North Slope. Has its own hotspring and ski area. • Swissôtel is one of the popular choice, too, but I didn’t see it during my whole trip (I stayed at Sheraton and spotted all above hotels mentioned, except Crowne Plaza as it is on different area) Food & Restaurants - Korean Foods (yes, because it is bordering North Korea!) and 东北菜 North East Chinese Cuisines. Shopping - ski clothes and accessories. Ginseng and medicinal mushrooms. Black pears. Vegan friendliness - OK! Hotels’s breakfasts are fine. Restaurants are generally happy to modify dishes per your request. #skiadventure #changbaishan #bucketlist #chinatrip #skiresorts

The Alpinists dream location

Well-frequented by alpinists, San Martino di Castrozza has already been a popular holiday destination in the 19th century. This village was particularly popular with artists and aristocrats, who got their inspiration from the village and environs. The origins of San Martino di Castrozza go back to a religious institution, which was the hospice of S. Martino and Giuliano, which accommodated travellers on their way from the Valle di Primiero valley via the Passo Rolle to the Val di Fiemme valley. #christmasgiveaway #skiadventure #skiresorts #skitrip #momentsmission #travelinspiration #skiing #decembertravel #unforgettableexperiences #scenicspotguide #nyedestinations #newyearstravel #naturalwonders

Arizona ": The Grand Canyon State, is a unique place to raise a family. The weather in AZ is nice that one could wear shorts all year around. In fact, I do. This is because I live in the AZ warm weather area. Arizona has many, many diverse areas that has different environmental properties. The northern part of Arizona, right around the Flagstaff and the Grand Canyon, gets rain and is considerably more cooler than the southern region of the state. On the west side of the state is the lower deserts and on the river, it’s warm. Yuma, Lake Havasu City, and Parker all are hotter than Phoenix and Tucson (found in the upper desert). This diverse climate landscape also brings with it diversity of activities. There are several ski resorts in Northern Arizona, #skiresorts#dessert#hiking#historicculture#naturalwonders#summervacation#hikingtrails#hotelstay#urbanexplorer

Tourism Is Back In Full Swing In Cancun Mexico : canun is back, better than ever! Over a hundred Mexico resorts have reopened the state tourism minister predicts Cancun will draw as many visitors in 2006 as it did two years ago. And the travel deals are great! If you haven’t been, now may be the best time to take a vacation to Cancun. Since Hurricane Wilma hit in late October, the clean up has been moving fast. In fact, commercial and charter flights are back on regular schedules and many of the Cancun hotels, restaurants, bars, shops, golf courses and clubs have reopened. Even the ancient Mayan sites of Tulum and Coba are open and looking better than ever. In an effort to repair the beaches, engineers have been working around the clock building the equivalent of two American football fields of beach a day by collecting the displaced sand, from 22 miles off shore, onto two ships and re-depositing it back in it’s original location. The hotels and shops in Cancun continue to deliver exceptional, very personalized and attentive service.

Ski Resort in Hangzhou😱❄🏂

This huge ski resort is Located in Linan (Daming Mountain) which is about 2 hours drive by bus or you could take the metro (line 5, line 16) to linan square and didi from there. We booked a trip with @Etravel. To get to the top of the mountain the resort has busses that drive you up to the cable cars that are 80¥ p.p one way or you could hike up from the cable cars. When in the cable car you can actually see how high up we are in the mountains. 😱🏔 A lot of thought was put in to the construction of this place. Once you reach the top of the mountain, you can see the snow and the Ski slopes. There is also a huge lake nearby 🥰 First you have to rent your ski gear there are many windows which helps to accommodate a lot of people (to rent equipment is 500¥, you get this back after returning everything). On the second floor there are local food options. After paying for the rental gear you recive a bracelet, you can then go and get all the gear you need, once you get an item they scan your bracelet. We opted for Snowboarding but the queue was very long for Snowboarding shoes, there aren't many equipment for this activity. There are lots of ski gear equipment. There about 5 slopes on there premises, beginner slopes to advanced slopes. The resort has conveyor to be able to conveniently get up the slopes. We had so much fun, we snowboarded for 3.5 hours! I have no experience in Snowboarding and enjoyed every minute of it. I would highly recommend a skiing activity for the winter. #ski #skiing #skiresorts #skiadventure #snow #snowboarding #winter #wintergetaway #wintervibe #winterwonderland #urbanexplorer #urbantraveler #decembertravel

Ski/Snowboarding in Tonglu!❄🎿🏂

Talk about an experience!!😱 I've never been Snowboarding in my life and this is the most fun I've ever had! ❤We arrived in our Snow boots, Snow pants and a warm jacket. Snow Snow Snow everywhere, even if it's artificial we don't care! It's still pretty! The venue offers rentals for ski and Snowboardingequipment. We had to rent our Snowboards and shoes. The deposit for rentals was 500¥ but afterwards you get it back. (Systems were a little slow on this one, I don't think they were ready for the amount of people that showed up🤣). Nevertheless Up and down the slopes we go. They have escalators that conveniently take you up the slopes so there is not much walking involved, there were a lot of beginners so watch out not to crash into anyone, like I did. 🤣 There are slopes that are not too steep which was perfect for a newbie like me. The venue does sell Local foods and cold drinks for a quick lunch break. This was an experience I'll want to experience over and over again! 😍#ski #skiresorts #skitrip #skiing #scenicspotguide #travelinspiration #decembertravel #unforgettableexperiences #urbanexplorer #ChristmasGiveaway #skiadventure

Sveitsi Ski Center

The meaning of Sveitsi in Finnish language equals Switzerland. But this is not real Switzerland, this is a town called Hyvinkää where the Sveitsi district is located. The district got its name from a German speaking family that used to live in the area. It’s just a coincidence that the local ski center is located there. But that area has been the local center of winter sports (and actually summer sports too) already from 1950’s. There are 4 lightened ski slopes with elevations ranging from 40 to 80 meters and slope length between 250 and 400 meters. Despite its small size the ski resort has been investing heavily in the artificial snow machines hence leading to one of the longest seasons in the southern Finland. The ski center opens typically late November or early December after sufficiently cold nights. Actually they need only a few days of cold weather. They are trying to keep the center open until late spring which is exceptionally long considering the location in the very south Finland. You can get to Sveitsi Ski Center by train or by car from Helsinki. It takes about an hour to come. The prices are stated in the last picture. The price table was in Finnish only but “tunti” means an hour in Finnish and there are also evening- and day tickets available with free admission to children under 6 using a helmet. I think the center itself is very basic but I really appreciate the efforts of providing a long season this south. It really makes a big difference in climate if you’re not located in the northern part of the country. #finland #hyvinkaa #sveitsi #momentsmission #ski #skiresorts
