Snow in December

maddevildancin · Aug 27th 2014, 11:01am

Good Morning All,

I am new to the site so hello to all!

My partner and I are looking to visit from 14th-21st December - can anyone advise what the weather conditions are likely to be during this time? Some other sites suggest that it is a risky time to go?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Regards,

Christine

Hi Christine

Yes it can be "risky" but in early December it is "risky" in many resorts as they have only been open a couple of weeks by then. It's what you make of it though, and usually by then there is good snow in Arcalis which is covered on your lift pass. This being said the last few Decembers we have had good snow in Arinsal and you can see the photos here:

December 2011

Hope this helps!

Hi Steve,

Thanks very much for your reply.

If there isn't any snow fall by this time would the snow cannons allow for some skiing? The photos are very promising though....thanks.

Hi Christine

Yes the snow cannons will usually be in use as soon as it's cold enough.
