Resort advice, green runs

Quickie.

Anyone know which resort (europe) has the greatest or a larger number of green runs?

My wife is very much a beginner and while she can handle easy blues and nice amount of greens would be a big plus.
We are possibly looking to get away again later this season dependant on price.

I did notice the ADH has a nice selection of greens but i am turned off by the lack of tree lined skiing, i love the trees.

Any other suggestions?

Thank you.

I think Valmorel is meant to have lots of easy skiing.

Thanks, i did look at Valmorel but was put off by its size. it seems a smallish place, little apres, and few cannons.
I guess i want the best of both worlds, large resort with tons for me to do and enough for the beginners too.

It may be too much to ask though.

I think Soldeu in Andorra is a great confidence boosting resort. Plenty of easy greens & cruising blues.

Thanks Finn, i looked at Soldeu too....in fact having been to Andorra before i would like to go back. The only problem with Soldeu for me is the lack of SC Apartments. Or at least offered by the major TO's. I am sure i could find somewhere DIY though.

What about either, Montgenevre, Risoul or La Rosiere

There are lots of self catered appartments if you go DIY, we have friends that have found some real bargains!

I love soldeu! :D

If your wife can handle blues I wouldn't get too hung up looking for resorts with greens - they are often so slow that it can be hard to practice your technique. Often they are flat areas that link other pistes & involve hiking.

I would reitterate what others have said about the Granvalira resorts (like Soldeu & El Tartar) in Andorra - the blues there don't have hidden horrors & the ski schools are highly regarded. (It's got plenty of skiing for intermediates too).

We had our second week on snow there & loved it. The mountain cafes were a little uninspiring but that's as far as the negatives go. Even in a year of little snow they had the snow cannons working hard to keep the pistes well maintained. (Some of the reds high up beyond the canons were a little thin)
