About us
Hidden Mountain was born from a small group of ski enthusiasts, committed to making some radical changes in the travel industry.

More than just a travel company

The goal for Hidden Mountain is to provide not only a unique and unforgettable winter sports experience to our customers – but to support and promote those small local businesses who so often don’t receive the recognition they deserve.

In smaller resorts the chalets, hotels, restaurants and shops tend to be locally owned and operated, family businesses that are the beating heart of these regions.

Our Ethos

We believe that a ski holiday should be more than just a week on the snow amongst the crowds. It should be a celebration of alpine culture, an adventure into the road less travelled, a true connection between place, food, wine, community and experience. We believe that the fruit of the mountains should go to the people of the mountains, that the alpine spirit can be mixed with the desire for indulgence and celebration without losing its heart.

Small is Mighty

In sourcing our suppliers and partners we strive to support and promote those small local businesses who so often don’t receive the recognition they deserve. We believe that by ‘skiing small’ you will not only enjoy a more authentic mountain experience but will pay less for it.

Communities Make Places

In smaller resorts the chalets, hotels, restaurants and shops tend to be locally owned and operated, family businesses that are the beating heart of these regions. Travelling with Hidden Mountain means helping to maintain these communities and their local economies, by ensuring that seasonal visitor spend is not diverted into the pockets of multinationals but instead goes toward securing the future of these fragile rural communities.

Carbon Reduction

We’re working hard to minimise the carbon footprint of your ski holiday in order to help prevent the changes in climate which threaten the very mountains we all want to visit. We have a dedicated carbon assessment researcher whose job is to find more earth-friendly ways to travel to the mountains including via the incredible ‘snow train’.

Some cool stories

We enjoyed a short lads holiday to the Jewels of The Imperial Crown cluster. We were based in Chalet Alba which was ideally located near Grimentz, right in the heart of the Jewels Cluster. The chalet was really good value so we had a room each and some privacy.
