Discover Self-Drive Ski Holidays

A self-drive ski trip puts you in control. No airport queues, no baggage limits, and no stress about delays. Just pack up the car and head for the Alps at your own pace.

This option is ideal for travellers who want flexibility and value. Whether you're travelling with kids, friends, or just enjoy the scenic route, driving gives you the freedom to stop, explore and take in the journey. Plus, it often works out cheaper than flying—especially during peak weeks.

With Sunweb, your ski package always includes your lift pass, and you can easily add extras like:

  • Ski and snowboard hire
  • Lessons for beginners and kids
  • Transfers (if you still want them at resort level)
