Personally I did not like it. I found it a bit spread out and no where near as good as sauze or sestriere. If I went to the area again I wouldn't spend a day there, I thought it was a wasted day. But that's just me, others prob love the place

If you can't carry skis, you shouldn't be skiing! ;)

Please don't use the hand bag type :oops:

Fair enough. Beginners will find the trip to monty difficult, and long.

Why don't you ski back? We did it there and back in a day this year. Easy enough

Me, me me me I will be going to Manchester as I won some free tickets from some very very very kind people ;)

What makes it better? Is my birthday weekend!!! :D

Cheers Gareth, have you ever been to Madonna Di Campligo?

I will be booking my skiing holiday late this season. Thinking about goin in February. Whilst I like France, PDS, 3V etc, the last couple of years we have been to Sauze D'Oulx and decided we really like Italy.

Having done a bit of research on resorts, Cervinia seems to be coming out as a possibility. Any of you guys ever been there? Is there anywhere else I should be considering in Italy? :roll:

Hmmm...... I 'Won tickets' last year for the Manchester show and they never turned up :cry:

Here goes:

My favourite ski resort, that's a difficult one. I think i would opt for somewhere in the PDS - probably Morzine for a number of reasons:

1. Lots of good scenery - whilst we dont go skiing to look at views it certainly helps
2. When there is good snow it is a wide and varied resort catering for all abilities
3. The town - it is not purpose built. Good variety of night-life and quality eateries
4. Just 1 hr drive from Geneva
5. My brother has a chalet there so I have cheap accommodation :)

Manchester tickets please :D
