Yay!! Skiing!! This type of trip can be an overwhelming packing project. This post is what to pack for a ski trip.
A ski trip, of course, is a different pack than packing for your usual holiday getaway. This type of holiday can be anxiety inducing from the amount of gear and the number of suitcases this could take. But I’m proud to say, I’m quite the savvy traveler, so my goal for any trip is always ease, the ease of travel…so ONE suitcase all!
In this post I’m sharing packing tips for a ski holiday.
What to Pack for a Ski Trip
Let’s get the quick pack for the slopes out of the way
- ski jacket
- ski pants
- base layers
- gloves
- hats
- buffs
- socks
- goggles
check, check, check, check, check & check. PS…ski/snowboard rental shops do not rent goggles so remember to bring your own! This + two pairs of shoes fills half of one suitcase!
It’s all about the Outerwear
Our ski trip took us to the wonderous Banff, Canada. Banff is BEAUTIFUL & magical and it’s also so damn cold!
For a {seriously cold} adventure like this, the primary focus is on outerwear. Expect to be sporting some sort of outerwear {even inside the hotel/resort} while everything else in the suitcase is comfy & cozy. Even out to dinner the dress code is comfy & cozy, #facts. I’ve outlined some essentials of that comfy/cozy in the checklist below!
Alright, outerwear, let’s gooo >> There’s four total for this 7 day trip
- ski jacket
- sleeveless puffer
- cargo jacket
- puffer
To pack all this, I wore the sleeveless puffer + cargo jacket and only packed the ski jacket and puffer {yo…smashes down to nothing}.

Ski Trip Packing List
And that’s how we do packs for ski trips y’all!
You’re probs wondering, what about all the ski gear? After a number of trips lugging our own gear, we rent our gear now. The resorts have top notch equipment and usually in much better shape than what we own!
OK! Have the best time! Hope this helps with your looming pack!
