If there's one group that TRULY gets the meaning of 'alpine chic', it's undoubtedly the royals. Each year, you can rely on the world's most famous families to pack their finest salopettes and head to the likes of Klosters, Lech and Verbier to carve up some serious powder.

Traditionally a hobby for the elite, it's a winter sport that has a long history with the blue-blooded and it shows no signs of slowing as the likes of William and Kate, King Felipe and Queen Letizia and Prince Harry carry on the tradition. Here are some of the best pictures of the royals skiing holidays over the years...

Prince Charles, Princess Diana, The Duchess and Duke Of York

Way back in 1987, Prince Charles, Princess Diana, The Duke and Duchess Of York all holidayed together in the ultra exclusive resort of Klosters. Prince William and Harry, only being five and three respectively, were probably being kept away from the snow indoors and Princess Beatrice and Eugenie were yet to be born.

The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge

The first documented skiing holiday of Prince William and then-girlfriend Kate Middleton saw them using a T-bar drag lift whilst in Klosters in 2008. Three years later, the pair would tie the knot.

We love this shot of Princess Eugenie rocking a neon look during another visit to Verbier in 2011.

Princess Diana

Princess Diana's ski attire was always on-point as proven during her trip to Lech in 1994. We would totally wear that red puffer now.

Diana loved to have fun with her skiing wardrobe! Her braided hairband wouldn't look out of place on our favourite royals today, either.

Prince William, Prince Harry, Princess Beatrice and Princess Eugenie

Isn't this picture of Prince William helping his baby cousin, Princess Beatrice, with the collar of her ski suit just the sweetest? The four cousins were snapped during an official photocall during a family holiday to Klosters in 1995.

The Spanish royal family

Promoting the clearly excellent skiing conditions in Spain, Queen Letizia of Spain, Princess Leonor, Princess Sofia and King Felipe VI were snapped enjoying a short skiing break in Jaca in 2017. The conditions would give France and Switzerland a run for their money…
