Whistler Blackcomb, Canada
Whistler sits on a glacier, allowing people to ski into the summer months while the land around the peaks turn green. If you’re not into skiing or snowboarding, the resort has plenty of après ski for everyone.
Åre, Sweden
More than 100 pistes are illuminated for night skiing, as well as husky rides, snow mobiling and cross-country. Åre is also home to Sweden’s largest downhill slope.
Gassan, Japan
Located on Honshu, Gassan is so engulfed by snow it’s inaccessible during the wintertime. The resort opens up in April, where you can enjoy up to 1,000 meters of vertical adrenaline.
