Value Tours ski and snow Northern Hemisphere: New brochure, fresh deals, hot destinations

Value Tours now offers Alaska as the hot new ski destination in the Northern Hemisphere

Value Tours has officially launched its brand new 2010/11 Northern Hemisphere ski and snow brochure, featuring the unique new snow destination Alyeska Resort, Alaska.

The new and improved brochure has an additional 12 pages, is clear and easy to understand and use, incorporates a new Hotel Grading System and points out the best deals for earlybird and long-stay bookings, as well as kids’ snow specials.

“Value Tours has many years experience in the Northern Hemisphere snow world and understands the needs of travellers’ long-haul snow holidays,” says Nathan Singh, Product Manager, Value Tours.

“Our staff visit each destination and experience the products first-hand, ensuring our travellers receive the best advice available.”  

Alyeska Resort is where wilderness and luxury meet. Just 64 kilometres from Anchorage, it is the perfect base for skiing, snowboarding, and a variety of other winter activities. Situated in a glacier carved valley at the foot of the awe-inspiring Chugach Mountains, Alyeska Resort is the perfect place to discover the wilderness and expansive beauty of the Last Frontier.

The mountain offers terrain for skiers and riders of all levels. Intermediate and advanced skiers will love the wide open bowls and long top to bottom runs, while gentle tree-lined groomed runs are ideal for beginners. Alyeska boasts America’s longest continuous double-black diamond run, as well as a terrain park for freestylers and the Alyeskan Pipeline Super Pipe.

Combine all that with an average annual snowfall of 650 inches (1650 centimetres), 3200 vertical feet (975 metres) of diverse terrain and short lift lines, plus skiers and riders can also choose a heli-ski or snowcat package and get to know the Alaskan mountains like a local.

“We are excited to feature Alyeska Resort in Alaska as one of our newest offerings for Australian skiers. This truly is a bucket list Northern Hemisphere snow destination, whatever your ability level,” concluded Nathan.
