Skiing near nice?

Swingbeep that's spot on what you said, I did a season in Pra Loup, initially wondering where on earth I was going for the winter, but the snow was amazing that year, so I have very fond memories.

Hi Gareth
i'm living in Nice and use to ski in the area.
Isola 2000 is good and because of the '2000'you've some kind of insurance to have enough snow. But slope are too wide and a little bit short.
You can try Auron wich have a better variety of slopes.
Valberg is much more a familly resort, very nice with good slopes.
Limone has good slopes too and good restaurants and snacks on it ;-)
So...
