It's a jolly good job that there are lots of other tour operators offering chalet board accom

Having to smile and pretend they are really excited about going to the Med and sitting by the beach in the sunshine .......

Sniggers.......



BTW I expect you'd find quite a bit of dog carp in Val Thorens. Last time I was there, I watched lots of dog owners emptying their pets on the ski area at the top of Place Caron.

Good answer Bandit. You dont want all and sundry exploring your area

Those are the facts, plain and simple

I think that is because those are the resorts that people asked for.

Fair enough

Would there be anywhere good to stay that you would recomend in your valley?
I'd heard the name Anniviers but never looked at it until coming on here but it does looka really tidy place.

The Anniviers is unlikely to fit many of the criteria for the group. Chalets offering catered accom tend to be rare and upmarket, there is almost no ski in/out and the slopes predominantly suit adventurous skiers.

billip1, bad news on the car engine, I suppose it's good that it happened on the way to the Chunnel and not halfway down France.

Laax is not a resort I've skied. Looking at the piste map it seems that the accom is at 1100m, and there seems to be no slopes below the main villages. I guess you can ski to the lift if you have accom at the top of the village?

Looks like there are plenty of easy slopes, and sufficient snowmaking on the return runs. Several snowparks of different grades too.
