COVID 19 has put an end to the ski season, but we can still have a little skiing and snowboarding fun!
Skiers and snowboarders of the world: just because we’re all stuck at home hiding from coronavirus instead of on skiing holidays – enjoying slushy spring hot-laps on the mountain – doesn’t mean we can’t enjoy skiing, right? *sob*
Emoji quizzes have become popular during this quarantine so we’ve come up with some ski resort emoji quizzes to help you pass the time. To be perfectly honest, it helped us fill some time as well.
Swap pistes for a pen and get involved, this ski resorts quiz will cover most of the Alps and a good few resorts in North America as well. To things a bit easier for you we’ve divided the ski areas up into France, Austria, Switzerland and North American mini-quizzes.
It’s not the Winter Olympics, but a good bit of ski trivia / a skiing quiz can still get the fires of competition going around the house. Answers are all the way at the bottom of the post.

Well, hopefully that helps to distract you from the fact that you’re not having lunch on the sunny terrace of a mountainside restaurant right now. Sorry if writing that defeated the purpose… there’s always next year – ski season 2020-2021 will be here before we know it!
