When people think of the Alps, they often think only about ski deals and winter sunshine, of extravagance and fun on the slopes whilst Britain shivers under a blanket of cold rain.
However, there is more to the Alps than just a winter holiday destination, and it can be equally as exciting to spend the summer up in the mountains as it can be to spend a winter there.
In the summer, the Alps become the perfect destination for multi activity holidays. Whilst there are plenty of ski deals to be found in the winter, the summer actually affords a great deal more scope and almost anyone will be able to find an activity they love when visiting in the summer. Not only do you get the same breathtaking vistas and the same chance for peace and tranquillity if you want to escape the lively nightlife and daily frivolity, but you also get weather to die for.
From some gentle cycling and hiking to extreme downhill mountain biking and adrenaline-pumping white water rafting, there will be something for everyone once summer arrives in the Alps, and with activity holidays you can choose your perfect package. Whether you want peaceful views and some gentle exercise or whether you want to party by night and climb rock faces by day, the Alps really do have the versatility to offer something for everyone.
So not only can you be certain you will never get bored, but you can also be sure that every single member of your party is kept completely happy too. As one member of your group heads off horse riding, another can experience the thrill of Quad bikes, and a gentle walk in the mountains can very quickly become the perfect place to climb or abseil.
So if you think you have seen all the Alps have to offer, you may see a whole new side by simply visiting in the summer.
