Ski & Stay With Eddie The Eagle Edwards

Ski With Eddie the Eagle Edwards

Get the chance to ski with Eddie ‘The Eagle’ Edwards!

SkiWeekends are delighted to announce we are partnering with the fabulous Eddie 'The Eagle' Edwards to offer our guests the chance to ski, stay and dine with him in Chalet Marjorie in Les Gets this January.

From stunt jumping over 6 buses to holding the British ski jumping record, Eddie 'The Eagle' Edwards is a man of many talents.

Eddie was the first competitor to represent Great Britain in ski jumping for 60 years in 1988, achieving 73.5m in the Calgary Olympic Games. Not only that, he is also an accomplished skier, and was the subject of a Hollywood movie about his life (Eddie the Eagle, in 2016).

Eddie is a real friend of SkiWeekends. He has been skiing with SkiWeekends guests for several years, giving them the opportunity to stay in the same chalet, watch his movie with a Q&A and actually ski with the great man himself.
