Heaps of snow, minimal sunlight, gusty winds that make you feel like you might as well be at the North Pole…these are some of the reasons we dread winter, or at least its length.

Even if hitting the slopes isn’t your cup of hot cocoa, clicking into a set of skis is well worth it when it means you can return to a cozy chalet after a day spent traipsing down the mountain. Chalet-style ski resorts are nothing new, but we’ve traveled the globe and have found the most charming chalet properties in the world.
