Short break

If you want a cheap week go the first or second week after new year.
It is easy enough to find cheap deals for these weeks.
I managed to book a week in Les Arcs self catering for less than €400 departing on January 11th so I am sure you could get something similar from the UK.

Kaprun Austria. Whats that like? Internet says its good for intermediates

Its a glacier, bleak and cold usually. Not much of a town, although its linked to Zell am See which is very pretty. Would probably be a decent choice for someone of your standard bud

Hi Team, thanks Sm4sh for starting this one as I am looking for a short break too as due to work and school hols clashing I am stuck, hence, not being able to do the J2ski trip, as I was trying to work that last month, thanks Ally for your advice, sorry cant make it.

So, my predicament gets worse, I have 5 days off from 24th Dec to 28th Dec, although can finish work PM on 23rd but back in the office on 29th.

yes, worse time of year for cost, I know, however, I am unable to find a 5 day package which means potential DIY. Anyone come across anything in those dates that is not horrendously expensive?

Hi TH


Tell me about it, have been scanning for the last hour for a deal of something..... Nothing.

found some good flights to Munich but where to go from there?

TonyP,
Assuming that you think you have a good deal on flights, then try an email to the tourist boards. I did this for 6 of us, and had an offer of €45 per night HB, Scheffau, which we took. Train from Munich, the hotel collected us from the station.

There are always ways....

Like that idea Dave Mac, thank you, will get Mrs P on it in the morning, I do fancy Austria as they do Christmas a bit better than the french and also cheaper :D

Will it be okay that early in the season? only 750m high? or would you suggest somewhere higher?
