Let’s be honest, if you’re truly set on snowboarding properly, you’re going to want to go to somewhere snowy.

Your choices for snowy-but-affordable consist of: the Alps, Eastern Europe or Scotland.

The Alps is generally pricey and full of French people. Eastern Europe is very cheap, but rumours of bad snow, inhumanely long lift queues and vampires. Scotland is great but can be a bit patchy on the snow front and they do have an unhealthy obsession with Irn Bru.

OK, so it’s a lesser of three evils. Just kidding. All of these places have some serious perks. Pick your favourite and go with it!
