The Ultimate Guide to Unwind: Apres Ski in Europe

out guide to apres ski will help you enjoy the high life

Picture this: you’ve just finished a long day on the slopes, your thighs burning and your nose a shade of red that would make Rudolph jealous. You peel off your ski boots and feel an overwhelming sense of hunger and thirst wash over you.

Your mind races with questions: where can I find some hearty grub? And more importantly, where’s the nearest bar? Fear not, my snow-loving friend, for this is your ultimate guide to après ski in Europe. From cozy chalets to rowdy pubs, we’ve got you covered like a warm blanket after a chilly day on the mountain.

So grab a drink (or three) and let’s dive in.

If you’re planning a ski vacation in Europe, it’s important not to overlook one of the most enjoyable aspects of the experience: après ski. After a long day on the slopes, there’s nothing better than unwinding with a drink, a bite to eat, and some live music.

But with so many options throughout the continent, it can be difficult to know where to begin. From cozy huts with traditional Swiss fondue to lively bars with DJs and dancing, the range of apres ski options in Europe is truly unparalleled.

Whether you’re looking for a quiet evening with a stunning alpine view or a wild party that lasts all night, this ultimate guide will provide you with everything you need to know for apres ski in Europe.

Booze: the ultimate ski companion.

Skiing and alcohol make for an interesting pair, just like peanut butter and jelly. Whether you’re a seasoned skier or a newbie, you can’t deny the appeal of unwinding with a nice drink after a long day on the slopes.

But with so many options to choose from, where do you even begin?Europe is home to some of the finest après-ski scenes in the world, with bars and pubs that cater to every kind of skier. From cozy lounges to high-energy nightclubs, there’s something for everyone.

But don’t make the mistake of thinking that all apres-ski drinks are created equal. There’s a lot more to it than just grabbing a beer and calling it a day.

In Austria expect to sup on something like glühwein or schnapps or even Jagermeister. In France, you’ll also find vin chaud on offer, as well as excellent wines and a dizzying array of aperitifs.

So grab a seat, loosen up your ski boots, and get ready to raise a glass to the ultimate ski companion: booze. Trust us, this is going to be one epic ride.

Cheers!

Hot tubs, because cold never bothered us anyway.

As we all know, skiing is one of the most exhilarating and physically-demanding sports in the world. But what many people tend to forget is that skiing also requires a lot of downtime afterwards, to help your body relax and recharge after a long day on the slopes.

That’s where hot tubs come in – they’re the perfect way to unwind and soothe your aching muscles after a long day of skiing.And let’s be real here, who doesn’t love soaking in a hot tub? There’s something about the combination of warm water, jets, and bubbles that just feels so damn good.

And when you’re surrounded by the breathtaking beauty of a European ski resort, it’s the ultimate way to unwind and take in everything around you. Of course, hot tubs aren’t just a way to relax – they’re also a way to have a bit of fun.

There’s nothing quite like squeezing yourself into a tiny hot tub with a bunch of your friends, all while laughing, telling stories, and sipping on some wine or beer. It’s the perfect way to bond with your fellow skiers, and create some memories that you’ll cherish for years to come.

So why not make hot tubs a part of your apres ski routine? Whether you’re skiing in the Swiss Alps, or hitting up the slopes of France, there’s always a hot tub waiting for you at the end of the day. Trust us – your body (and your soul) will thank you for it.

Tipsy skiing: not for beginners.

…Or really anyone who values their life.

Trust us, we’ve seen it all. The drunk dude careening down the slopes with a bottle of schnapps in his pocket.

The giggling group of girls trying to coordinate their moves on the chairlift after a few too many mulled wines. And don’t even get us started on the après ski hot tub debacles.

Sure, we’re all for having a good time on the mountain, but there’s a fine line between a little buzzed and completely wasted. And let’s face it, skiing is dangerous enough when you’re sober.

Add a few drinks into the mix and you’re just asking for a broken leg (or worse).But hey, we get it.

There’s something about the crisp mountain air and the thrill of the slopes that just screams “let’s party!” So, if you must indulge in a little tipsy skiing, do it responsibly. Stay on the easy runs, keep your wits about you, and for the love of god, leave the schnapps at home.

And when the day is done and you’re ready to really let loose, head to the après ski scene. That’s where the real party is at.

From the wild clubs of Val d’Isère to the cozy pubs of Innsbruck, Europe’s après ski scene has something for everyone. Just remember, skiing and drinking don’t mix.

But drinking and dancing? That’s a whole different story.

Après-ski games: beer pong and beyond.

As the sun sets behind the snow-capped Alps and the slopes empty, it’s time to grab a cold brewski and move onto the real competition – après-ski games! Sure, skiing and snowboarding are exhilarating, but have you ever had a heated match of beer pong at 10,000 feet? The Bavarian drinking game has become a worldwide phenomenon and is a staple of European après-ski culture. Nothing compares to the feeling of sinking a ball in a cup that’s nestled in the snow or hearing the roar of the crowd when someone pulls off a trick shot.

But beer pong isn’t the only game in town.Why not try your hand at giant Jenga, where one wrong move can topple an entire tower and send your opponent into fits of laughter? Or challenge your buddies to round robin style flip cup, where the pressure is on as you race to down your drink and flip your cup before your competitor.

And if you’re feeling really adventurous, head to the local ice rink and give curling a go.But the best part about après-ski games? It’s a chance to let loose, unwind and enjoy some good old-fashioned fun with friends old and new.

So grab a beer, pick your poison and get ready to show off your skills (or lack thereof) in the ultimate battle of beer, brawn, and brains. Cheers!

In a Nutshell

At the end of the après ski day, you’ll need to gather your wits and skiing gear and brace yourself for a night of debauchery at the local bars. Whether you’re looking to sip on a hot toddy or savor some schnapps, you’ll find plenty of options to quench your thirst.

But beware, the drinks tend to be stronger than the slopes you just tackled, so pace yourself accordingly. And with that, we bid you adieu on your thrilling adventure, surrounded by the majestic Alps and the promise of naughtiness after the sun sets.

So, grab your skis, put on your best furry hat, and get ready to ski, drink and party like there’s no tomorrow! Until the next time, happy skiing and cheers to a wild après ski. 🍻😜🎿🏂
