    Heading to spain in a month for a trip into the sierra nevada’s

    Can anyone recommend good travel insurance?

    Many thanks

    If you are not racing or “DH specific” tracks your usual travel ins should cover you.

    When I went I spoke to my usual travel ins’er (Halifax Ultimate reward bank account) and they confirm provided the SOLE purpose of the trip wasn’t a particular sport i.e. a MTB package holiday, you are covered under the std policy.

    Another vote for Snowcard.

    If I were you, I’d check out who paid up for the ash cloud losses, and go with them 🙂

    Try Endsleigh. They have some sports covered as standard and charge a little extra for more extreme stuff.
    Good value, cover and payout promptly as i found out!

    They all now seem to have ‘natural disasters’ as an – expensive – add on

    Any insurer that includes mountain / helicopter rescue / recovery from inaccessible locations. Most standard insurers assume you can be scraped up by a standard ambulance crew to get you to a hospital. Snowtag / Dogcard will cover full costs of recovery and not just the medical expenses.

    Dunno if they’d pay out but my easyjet insurance cost £12 and specificaly lists MTB onthe included activity list.
