Sun-kissed slopes, pristine powder and breath-taking backdrops; you’ll find all of this (and a lot more) on our USA skiing holidays, as the country is home to thousands of acres of resorts imbued with classic American character and charm. While the USA might not be the first skiing location that comes to mind, the generally uncrowded and serene slopes, with pistes for all abilities, make it ideal for beginners and seasoned skiers alike.

"I would 100% recommend booking your next holiday trip through Original Travel. We found the whole process so easy, and our travel consultant, David, was amazing, ensuring that all the excursions and wishes of this trip were met. Nothing was too much to ask! We cannot thank Original Travel enough for our amazing once-in-a-lifetime trip and will definitely be booking through them again."

"David really listened to what we wanted and he put an amazing itinerary together. We booked our trip almost a year in advance and David went through everything with us just before we were due to leave, even remembering that one of our group was celebrating his 50th birthday during our trip. It was a fabulous and varied trip. The Dossiers were very helpful and it was reassuring to have the Concierge as a contact - very impressed. Having the eSIM was an extra bonus."

"Great hotel recommendations and itinerary. The app is great, we loved having all the information in one place. The restaurant recommendations were good, and we like that there are links directly to Google maps, etc. We didn't use the Concierge service but it was good to have as backup."

The word ‘diverse’ can be used to describe USA skiing holidays, as the country has everything from volcanic slopes in the Pacific Northwest and Champagne powder in the ‘Golden State’, to cowboy ski towns in the Wild West. Our tailor-made holidays can accommodate both beginners and experienced skiers, with additional activities to keep everyone entertained. Colorado’s Rocky Mountains offer abundant natural snow and a variety of trendy resorts. At Devil’s Thumb Ranch, the 18,000 square foot spa is sure to sooth aching muscles and revive energy levels, while Breckenridge is one of the USA’s most loved resorts, with its intriguing gold rush history. There’s no danger of running out of new landscapes to explore, given the patchwork of 187 different trails that adorn the mountain sides. The nearby ski resort of Vail represents the epitome of luxury skiing, with underfloor heating beneath the pavements and plenty of fine-dining options above.


In California, it’s possible to travel from the exquisite beaches of Santa Monica to the snow-capped mountains of Sierra Nevada within a matter of hours. Located within the American Cordillera mountain range, the Sierra Nevada forms part of the western ‘backbone’ of the Americas. Here you can enjoy cross-country skiing, off-piste snowboarding and snowshoe excursions at Mammoth Lakes ski resort, which is also home to some incredible food and craft beer as part of the resort’s après ski.


Our USA skiing holidays include much more than salopettes and ski poles; once you’ve had your fill of snow-related activities, we’ll whisk you back down to sea-level for various outdoorsy activities from hiking to horse riding to round of an adventure-filled trip.
