Holiday provider Secure Travel has announced that a regular snowfall this year has built up the best skiing conditions in five years.
It also states that while the slopes are currently experiencing a sunny spell - a welcome bonus for many - the weather is still cold enough to keep the snow in good condition.
There are also a number of bargains available to those wanting to hit the slopes after the half-term crowds have gone.

The Chamonix Mont-Blanc resorts offers facilities that cater for all abilities, with a newly-designed freestyle snow-park featuring a number of bowls, bends and jumps for more adventurous skiers and snowboarders.
InsureandGo offers a range of
