Photos of stars who love to go skiing
Ski season is almost over in the northern hemisphere. Let's have a look at the celebrities who particularly enjoy this time of year!
The famous heiress of the Hilton hotels never says no to a stay in the mountains… She naturally prefers a posh resort, like that of Ischgl in the Austrian Tyrol area.
Madonna seems ready to hit the slopes of the resort of Gstaad in Switzerland! And we have to admit that not everyone wears a ski helmet as beautifully as she does.

And what about the unforgettable Gina Lollobrigida, portrayed on the slopes in the early 1950s?
The daughter of the Queen of England is a ski lover: in this photo from the end of the 1980s, we can see Princess Anne with her daughter Zara on the slopes of the French resort of Morzine.
The daughters of Prince Andrew also used to go skiing with their parents in the Alps - for example in Verbier, Switzerland. Beatrice and Eugenie pose here in the snow with their mother, the Duchess of York (Sarah Ferguson).
Here is another royal family -- but from Hollywood. Few couples have made movie (and gossip) history like Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Burton, pictured here enjoying a vacation in the mountains with their dogs.
In this photo, a young Robert Redford on the slopes of Sundance, Utah, with his wife Lola Redford.
The Duchess of Cambridge and Prince William treated themselves to a ski holiday during their official trip to Norway and Sweden in 2018. However, they generally prefer to go skiing in France, inLes Trois Vallées.
Prince William got his passion for skiing from his mother, Princess Diana of Wales. Here we see her skiing with her two sons, William and Harry, in Lech, Austria, a resort she particularly loved.
More than twenty years later, another royal family, that of the Netherlands, is still going to Lech to enjoy the mountains and winter sports. This image shows the entire family, with King Willem-Alexander, Queen Maxima, and their three daughters.
Who said winter sports had to be all about skiing? Bella Hadid hasn't revealed exactly where she was, but it's a delight to see her have fun on the snow... while sledding!
The Prince of Monaco is an excellent skier, as can be seen in this image taken during a charity competition held in Italy.
Will Prince Albert's skill also be due to the years and years he spent on the slopes with his family? Most likely yes, if we calculate that this child in the foreground, in the arms of the unforgettable Grace Kelly, was indeed him! The family was in Switzerland, in the resort of Gstaad.
His sister Stéphanie is also fond of snow and sliding sports. The resort of Courchevel, one of the jewels of the French domain, has been a favorite of the princess for many years.
Even a legend like Sofia Loren never disdained the mountains. In this 1978 photo, however, Sofia Loren was not in Austria for pleasure, but for work: she was on the set of the MGM-produced film, titled "Objective "Brass."
In this 1937 photo, we can see a smiling John Wayne with skis on his shoulder, next to Barbara Read, on the California slopes.
Not far from Courchevel, the French Méribel also has a tradition of hosting the biggest stars. Brigitte Bardot used to spend her skiing holidays there in 1966…
Skiing is a challenging sport, but going skiing week also means finding time to relax, just as Sylvester Stallone does in this photo in the early 1990s.
As true patriots, the Spanish royals ski on Iberian soil. King Felipe and Queen Letizia regularly take their daughters Leonor and Sofia to private ski sessions, for example in the resort of Jaca in Spain.
But the father of the current sovereign was more cosmopolitan, as he was often seen on skis in Switzerland, for example in Gstaad.
When he wasn't driving his Formula 1 car, Fernando Alonso enjoyed relaxing on the ski slopes, as shown in this photo taken in 2012 in the Italian resort of Madonna di Campiglio.
Johnny Hallyday was a great family ski lover. In this image from the 1970s, the famous French singer is on the tracks with Sylvie Vartan and their son David.
We close the gallery with an incredible trio of stars: in the center of the photo, we see the beautiful Natalie Wood (center) along with her husband Richard Gregson (right), and a young Clint Eastwood (left).
