Celebs on skis
  • Fancy sashaying past royalty on the ski slopes? The royals are regulars at this exclusive Swiss mountain resort. With its traditional village feel, Klosters is a beautiful, romantic destination which offers horse-drawn sleigh rides, toboggan runs and snow shoe trekking on top of its wonderful ski facilities.

  • Although most reports of her holiday relate to her shopping excusions and snow bunny ski suits, VB does also ski. How else would she be able to show off her top-of-the-range ski outfits? One fellow skier told local website merinet.com: "She's actually pretty decent on skis and they all looked as though they were having a great time.” Courchevel is the glamourous face of the Trois Vallees area - it's stuffed with the rich and famous, who fly in to the little mountain airstrip on their private jets.

  • With seven miles of mountain front and 300 days of sunshine, it's no wonder stars like Justin head for Vail, the main rival to Aspen. It's Adventure Ridge - a snow park the size of a football stadium - is a fun-packed place for anyone who fancies tubing, ski biking, snow mobiles and bungee trampolining...

  • Verbier is another popular spot with royals. This snap was taken of Eugenie in 2011, when she was taking a skiing break with mum Fergie and sister Beatrice. Verbier is known for its wonderful position, perched atop a sunwashed plateau with incredible views.

  • We said it was popular with royals!

  • Our Katherine is a good sport. She was spotted in Banff, nestled in the Canadian Rockies, participating in an event specially held for celebs in 2010. The Celebrity Sports Invitational had A-listers including Glenn Close and Susan Sarandon racing against the clock and showing off their good-natured competitive skills. Aaah, bless.

  • This pic shows La Moss taking a well-earned break with Jamie and daughter Lila Grace. Not known for her prowess on the slopes, this is believed to be one of the first times she has skiied - and she picked a good spot. Mont Blanc offers a massive ski area so it's good for all levels...

  • Surrounded by some of the most beautiful Alpine scenery in the world, Gstaad is a car-free village with a picturesque castle as its prominent feature. At night, the Palace Hotel and chalets are lit up by fairy lights, giving it a magical feel. The resort is known for its high-octane luxury and attracts celebs including Prince Rainer, David Bowie and Roger Federer.

  • Not again!

  • On Boxing Day 2011, the supermodel was spotted enjoying the Colorado snow with her family. They picked their resort wisely: Aspen is fabulous for families, and this glamorous lot were sapped enjoying lots of skiing and plenty of sledging together.

  • We just had to include this pic of Mr Eastwood in Colorado back in 1982 (yes, they really did ski even back then!) - mainly because he looks too cool for school.

  • This beautiful Canadian resort is another popular hotspot for A-listers. As well as Arnie, recent spottings have included Reese Witherspoon, various British royals and Brad Pitt. Glorious skiing, upscale hotels luxurious restaurants and posh shopping: what more could a celeb ask for?

  • Kate joined the swelling numbers of celebs in Aspen last Christmas. She and fiance Matt Bellamy took advantage of the sunshine by hitting the slopes on a family holiday to celebrate the baby Bing's first birthday. Cute!
