Please recommend ski resort for beginners

[Chicci1]

Hello, would really appreciate any recommendations for a ski resort for a family of beginners. Ideally somewhere relatively near an airport for ease of transfers and with an English speaking ski school. It would be for March 2026. Thanks so much

Lapland is great in March. All the resorts are fairly close to the airports and the ski instructors all speak english.

Most places in Austria would fit the bill - as beginners you don't need the extensive off-piste of somewhere like St. Anton, or the bleakness of the glaciers at Kaprun/Kitzsteinhorn or Hintertux. Fly to Innsbruck for the Tirol resorts (e.g. Zell am Ziller, Mayrhofen, Gerlos, Westendorf, St Johan in Tirol) or to Salzburg for Saalbach-Hinterglemm, Zell am See, Rauris (a MN favourite), Wagrain, Flachau, Maria Alm (and about 30 other places). Transfers would be max. 2 hours (often far less) along valley roads, so no horrible steep roads with scary hairpin bends. All ski schools in Austria have English-speaking instructors.

Morzine - it's where I learned to ski and where I ski every year. Guaranteed decent snow right at the top in Avoriaz, busy resort, plenty of easy runs and lots of good, English-speaking ski schools (I learned with Ecole De Ski Francais and they were great). Plus there's loads going on and the whole place is very family friendly, if you stay at Avoriaz you can have your luggage bought up in horse-pulled sledges which is cute. It's an hour from Geneva airport with loads of transfers (Alpybus etc).

Second Avoriaz.

We learned in les arc - arc 2000 is good.

I'd suggest learning to ski in the UK before you go.

not expensive and tonnes of runs.
