The big event for J2Ski's favorite charity - Snow Camp - is now open for entries...



The Snow-Camp Alpine Challenge is back and this year promises to be bigger & better than ever!

The Snow-Camp Alpine Challenge is a unique 2 day charity snowsports endurance event designed to give your team a skiing and snowboarding experience you will never forget! If you and your colleagues, friends or family love skiing or boarding, need an excuse to hit the slopes for an extra few days this winter and like the idea of supporting Snow-Camp's work with inner-city young people then read on.

Dates: 12th – 15th March 2015
Venue: Morzine, Portes du Soleil, France




Here's the movie from last year's challenge which we hope gets the juices flowing!



The Alpine Challenge is all about strategy, stamina, teamwork and fun! Your team of 4 must clock up 150km of GPS tracked skiing or boarding over 2 non-stop days across the 15 resorts of the massive Portes du Soleil ski area, navigating to more than 20 checkpoints spread across the 660kms of the 12 ski resorts. The team that successfully visits the most checkpoints and clocks up the most kms will win the Snow-Camp Alpine Challenge 2015! With prizes also available for the top fundraisers, there's plenty to get your hands on!

Snow Camp wrote:As you may be aware, we have partnered with Ski Weekends for this year's Challenge meaning we have been able to reduce the entry fee to just £200pp which includes your flights, transfers, 3 nights h/b accommodation, lift pass, GPS tracking, parties, medals, certificates and more… which we hope you feel if a fantastic deal.

The new partnership enables us to offer you a range of flights, hotels and transfers to suit everyone – making it as easy as possible for you to join in. And for those based in and around Morzine, there is also the Challenge only option available.

So are you coming? We hope so! Sign up today for just £200pp, or £250pp if you prefer premium accommodation!


After you have registered, the Snow-Camp team will be in touch to help set up a Team Fundraising page which you can easily send round to friends, family and colleagues letting them know what you are doing and telling them about the charity. Each team of 4 has a minimum fundraising target of £3,000 (£750pp) and this will be managed through your page.

It's easy to register, just fill out the short form here or call the Snow-Camp office on 01273 241383, or email dan.k@snow-camp.org.uk and the team will look forward to welcoming you on to the challenge.

Team spaces are filling up fast and the deadline for registration is Monday the 8th December, in just 3 weeks time.

The 2014 Challenge broke record distances and raised over £40,000 for Snow-Camps work. Check out the full news story here. If you have always thought you would like to enter a team in the Challenge then now is the time to get involved!
