Women Who Ski 2022

It’s been awesome – they are awesome, and we are truly thankful to all the women, sponsors, and contributors for their loyalty and support.

We hosted two Women Who Ski 2022 trips, one in January when the resort had just opened-up and travel was albeit slightly more complicated with various tests/forms/regulations to adhere to. Never-the-less over twenty women joined this trip. Then in March after things had opened-up completely, we hosted our second trip with thirty women joining.

Both January and March’s trips followed the same format; 3 night’s stay with 2 full days skiing and option of an afternoon skiing on arrival too. Lots of skiing, yoga, lunches on the mountain, apres ski and beautifully prepared dinners.

The trips took place in Kaluma Ski’s stunning Chalet Montfort which can sleep up to 24 people (January) and in the Montfort Lodge which sleeps up to 32 people (March). Set right in the heart of St Anton, with a modern Alpine design (and its own bar), this chalet is perfect for hosting and entertaining large groups.

What Was Included in the Women Who Ski 2022 trip:

• 3 nights luxury accommodation (based on shared occupancy in a twin/triple room)
• Transfers to and from Innsbruck (at selected times)
• 2 Day Ski Pass
• Ski Guiding (ski level dependent)
• Intro to off piste with local WWS guide Geli Hiesel
• Discounted Equipment Hire at Intersport Arlberg
• Exclusive use of the chalet and its facilities
• Yoga session (on pre-request)
• WWS Goodie Bags

• Fully stocked complimentary bar serving champagne, premium house spirits, beer, wine and soft drinks.
• 24 hours in resort concierge service
• Driver service (at selected times)
• Luxury toiletries in all rooms
• Quality dressing gowns and slippers
• Hairdryers in bedrooms
• Unlimited WIFI

Excluded:

• Flights (we will recommend flight times to Innsbruck to match transfers)
• Food and drink outside of the chalet
• Massage and treatments (discounted and booked on request)

We are sure all the ladies that joined the trips would agree that Kaluma Ski’s Lucy Butterworth together with Zoë de Pass hosted two trips that are unlike any other. Friendly, inclusive, unparalleled service, a wonderful itinerary (that the ladies are free to dip in and out of), the incredible pistes of St Anton, St Christoph, Zurs and Lech, a luxurious chalet, yummy lunches, and dinners, apres, generous goodie bags and most of all FUN!
