Anyone know Vaujany near ADH?
They have some nice chalet but it says,

"located at less than 5min. from the big cable car of Vaujany which brings you in 6min. into the hart of the fantastic and snow secure ski area of Alpe d'Huez.

Vaujany is a gateway to an extraordinary ski area. For beginners and experienced skiers alike, Vaujany's 237km of slopes are just perfect for leisure and high-performance skiing.

With the greatest altitude range in the world, offer yourself some skiing freedom on the black and red slopes through some fantastic scenery."

Is that a long way out?

250km small????


Its bigger than L2A, and looking at the piste map a lot more interesting as well.


As well as SC, the requirements you have meet pretty much those that I have (not overly fussed about too much going on in the village) and therefore I can only recommend places Ive been to and places I want to go to.

Been to and enjoyed:

ADH
Serre Che
Sauze d'Oulx
Mayrhofen
St Anton
Verbier

Want to go to:

Cervinia
Arabba/Selva
Champoluc/Gressoney
Crans Montana
Val d'Isere
Baqueira-Beret
Ischgl
Solden

I have stayed in both ADH and Os En Osian and skied down to Vaujany on both occasions. Runs right down to resort in my opinion are not good and become very churned up and slushy towards end of day. If you are after a more lively resort I would 100% recommend ADH, decent bars and nightlife. I actually preferred my trip to Os as it had a more village feel to it and had a great bar at the lift station.

The main ski area is fantastic and I cant fault it, caters for all abilities.
Wishes Essex had a mountain range Im all about the CamRock

Bear in mind he is a northerner & comes down the slopes looking like a windmill, more room the better -)
