I'd recommend Montgenevre as a great resort. Lots of scope for improvers and lovely confidence building runs for your Mum. With added bonus of being able to ski both France and Italy. There's potential for longer trips to Sauze d'Oulx and Sestriere or even a day in Serre Chevalier - all free on the lift pass - compact village but with enough to keep you happy for a week and not too far to walk.

Its ok for a day trip of 2, but not a lot else going on and limited local skiing. Nice place to have skied though on day visits.Ian Wickham wrote:Volf wrote:I'd recommend Montgenevre as a great resort. Lots of scope for improvers and lovely confidence building runs for your Mum.

I agree with Tony_H. I also think that Montgenevre is OK for 2 maybe 3 days but I personally feel that it is too limited for a week ski.

You ignore the fact that you have Claviere next door which is effectively part of the domain; the Milky way on your doorstep, as well as 5 other resorts FREE on a week ski pass, which will do for even the most dedicated distance skier.

I really recommend Morzine & Avoriaz. It covers over 650km of piste and one of the largest skiing areas in Europe. Also only 1 hour away from Geneva so a quick transfer.
Pistes are really good and offer lots of different runs for different abilities.
A great place all round!
