Sweeping meadows, snowy peaks, ski resorts—you’ll find it all in the Alps, and climates can change from one location to the next. While it’s important to pack for warmth and comfort, packing light should be your main focus. Weight limits are lenient in mainland Europe, but keep in mind you’ll have to be able to get your luggage through stations and on to trains.

From clothing to accessories, to the extras that will make for a painless trip, take a look at our packing list below so you can enjoy every moment of your Alps holiday.

It’s always best to be prepared before you depart. The higher up you go in the Alps, the more expensive things are to purchase. When it’s après ski time, curl up by a fireplace with a glass of wine and a selection from our train journey reading list. Still haven’t decided on your ideal Alps holiday?
