Whether you’re a mid-sized business looking to reward your team, or a large corporation seeking a unique setting for client entertainment, we’ve got the perfect solution. Specialising in the most prestigious European ski resorts like Courchevel, Verbier, St. Anton, and Chamonix, we tailor every detail to suit your company’s needs. So, what makes a corporate ski weekend with us special, and why should you be planning your next trip to the mountains? Let’s break it down.
Why Choose a Corporate Ski Weekend?
Imagine whisking your team away from the hustle and bustle of the city to the tranquil yet exhilarating backdrop of the snow-capped Alps. A corporate ski weekend isn’t just a mini holiday; it’s an opportunity to strengthen business relationships, foster team collaboration, and reward hard work in an inspiring environment. The combination of adventure, relaxation, and a touch of luxury makes it a win-win for both employers and employees.
Whether it’s a bonding session on the slopes or a strategic discussion by the fire in a luxury chalet, the benefits are clear: team-building, enhanced morale, and plenty of fun. Plus, you can leave the logistics to us – from luxury accommodation to tailored activities, we handle everything so you can focus on making the most of your time in the mountains.
What Does a Ski Weekend with Mountain Leap Events Look Like?
Our ski weekends are not one-size-fits-all. We create custom itineraries based on your company’s goals, group size, and preferences. Here’s a sneak peek into what a typical corporate ski weekend might include:
Day 1: Arrival and Welcome
After a scenic transfer from the nearest airport (we cover all the major hubs from Geneva to Zurich), you’ll arrive at one of Europe’s most exclusive ski resorts. Whether it’s Courchevel’s 1850 or Verbier’s elegant chalets, you’ll be welcomed with a glass of champagne, stunning views, and warm hospitality. After settling in, the evening kicks off with a welcome dinner in a private chalet or a gourmet restaurant, giving your team a chance to unwind and prepare for the days ahead.
Day 2: Skiing and Adventure
Wake up to fresh mountain air and a hearty breakfast. After a short briefing, it’s time to hit the slopes! Whether your team consists of seasoned skiers or complete beginners, we’ll tailor the skiing experience to suit everyone. Expert instructors are available for private lessons, or you can challenge your colleagues to an exhilarating group ski race.
For non-skiers, there’s always an array of other activities to enjoy: snowshoeing through the forests, adrenaline-pumping snowmobiling, or a relaxing spa experience. And don’t forget, we arrange everything – from ski passes to equipment hire – so you can focus on the fun.
Lunch is served at one of the renowned mountain restaurants, where the food is as memorable as the views. After an afternoon of skiing or snowboarding, gather for après-ski at a chic mountain bar, complete with live music, mulled wine, and a laid-back vibe.
Day 3: A Unique Blend of Work and Play
Many companies choose to use the weekend not just for leisure but also to get some work done in an inspiring setting. We can arrange private meeting spaces equipped with all the necessary technology for presentations or brainstorming sessions. Picture it: a productive morning meeting followed by an afternoon conquering the slopes.
In the evening, why not take advantage of the local culture? How about a traditional fondue night in a charming alpine hut or a cocktail party at an exclusive club in the heart of the resort?
Day 4: Departure and Farewell
After a final morning of skiing or perhaps a relaxing spa session, it’s time to say goodbye. A final team brunch wraps up the weekend before heading back to the airport, leaving everyone refreshed, motivated, and with memories to last a lifetime.
Examples of Memorable Corporate Ski Weekends
Let’s take a look at a few of our most memorable ski weekends:
The Elite Escape in Courchevel 1850
One of our long-term clients, a mid-sized finance firm, wanted to reward their top performers with an exclusive ski weekend. We hosted them at a luxurious chalet in Courchevel 1850, complete with a private chef, and arranged private heli-skiing sessions for the adrenaline seekers in the group. For those looking for something a little less intense, there were snowshoeing treks followed by hot chocolate at a mountain refuge. The weekend wrapped up with a lavish party in one of Courchevel’s elite nightclubs, making it a weekend to remember.
Team-Building Bonanza in Verbier
A global tech company approached us to organize a team-building ski weekend in Verbier. With participants of varying skill levels, we split the group into teams and arranged a friendly ski competition, followed by a treasure hunt on the slopes. The winners were celebrated at a cozy mountain hut with a fondue dinner. The team returned to work closer than ever, with a new sense of collaboration.
Strategy and Skiing in St. Anton
A large international law firm wanted to combine business with leisure. We arranged a strategic workshop in a private chalet overlooking the stunning slopes of St. Anton. Each day started with a focused meeting before hitting the world-famous Arlberg ski area. The weekend culminated in an evening of luxury at a Michelin-starred restaurant, followed by some of St. Anton’s legendary après-ski action.
