Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

www.schulferien.org includes ALL the holiday dates for the Austrian provinces as well as all the other countries. Plus it is way easier to see which of the German States are on holiday at any one time.

It looks to me like Wales are doing half term w/c 18th February. Any other regions going for that date?

@miranda, I've had a couple of enquiries for my apartment for that week already, so it looks like others are too.

What's the view about the weekend of 4 March (and the days either side of it) - how busy will that be? It suits my other plans better than mid-March, but obviously isn't completely clear of the school holidays.

 So if you're just off somewhere snowy come back and post a snow report of your own and we'll all love you very much

? Appears to be almost no one off that week?

I am targeting the week before. It seems one French group, the largest German group (am I right?) all of the Belgians and half of the Dutch, along with two Austrian groups are on (thanks to our late colleague and missed snowHead for that). I am assuming Bayern is a large part of Austria?

Am I right in thinking that would be a pretty bad week then!?!?

 You know it makes sense.
You know it makes sense.
@8611, the worst weeks in any sense of that are the Paris weeks. All else is bearable. Depends where you are going.

@tripowski, also depends where you are going as the French are most unhappy about weekenders during VSs.

Is that french specific though under a new name, ie do the Parisians tend to impact the french resorts more? I see you've champoluc on your locations and that's one of the places I might target if snow is right, had hoped it would be a bit quieter there?
