To contact us by telephone or email, 0800 043 0020 / 01273 092 757 support@jsinsurance.co.uk

You should always have a good look and study the Resort Map. This Map will show you the marked runs and the areas between.

All our policies cover Off Piste Skiing and Snowboarding as standard as long as you are Off Piste within the Resort Boundaries and you are not in any areas declared off-limits for any reason by the Resort Management.

Safety Equipment

We recommend that you buy Avalanche Safety Gear and there are great Packages from Terrawest and  Ortovox; these include Transceivers, backpacks shovels and probes.  

Recco Reflectors as well are a must and great value at £24.95. 

If you are going into areas that are not managed and where Ski Patrols tend not to go, the term can be referred to as 'out of bounds or 'back country' Skiing.

These terms have come to the UK, mainly from the USA and Canada. For example, in the USA,  if you go 'out of bounds, you might find yourself in some legal trouble and may receive a fine. In Europe, you have not committed any crime, so it is not illegal.

Backcountry is not the same as Cross Country Skiing, as this is more like a tour of the resort and tends to be on flat terrain.

If you have pre-existing medical conditions and plan to participate in Off Piste Skiing / Snowboarding (Guided) whilst travelling abroad, we can provide you with a policy.

Please make sure you select Winter Sports cover.
