Winter Sports holidays require dedicated insurance policies, or specialised extensions to cover that do not usually come with a traditional holiday policy. A conventional travel insurance policy is likely to exclude many of the riskier pastimes that people engage in on a winter holiday, e.g. skiing, snowboarding, etc.

Your skis and other equipment can be covered on a winter sports insurance policy, as can the peculiar risks of, say, piste-closure, avalanche, pre-paid lift pass costs, etc.

It may also be worth checking on Annual Travel Insurance where you may find winter sports extensions to this type of policy. As with any travel insurance, be sure to check each set of policy cover for precise details.
