If you are wanting something away from the hussle, try this place I stayed there and the food alone was worth the nighly charge. 5 course meal every night, not once did i manage to order all 5 courses due to the size of the courses.
The best part for me though was being thevery first person to ski th slopes every morning on a couple of occaisions I followed the Piest basher down. they also pick you up by skidoo.

Reasonable priced Accomadition 3 valleys
Started by User in France, 3 Replies
We've been to Pas de la casa for the past 3 years as we thought it was cheaper but the lift pass prices are in the top ten highest,so we thought we would try some where new.

We fancied Courchevel and be going for 5 nights but we are struggling to find reasonable priced accommodation that isnt tied for a week/7days

We just fancy a change that wont break the bank

thanks
Recommendation for 2013 ...Italy???
Started by User in Ski Chatter, 10 Replies
A group of 8 of us have skied Andorra(pas de la casa) the last 3 years ,so we are after a change.I'm after some recommendation for 2013 ,I was thinking possible Italy as lift passes,ski hire etc seem a little cheaper.

We are all blue/red run skiers/boarders and have been drawn towards sestriere and surrounding areas due to transfer times



thanks

Our party fly out to Austria on saturday.

Did you get to Lake Pessons?



Yes we went there twice thanks.(not sure how to add a photo)
All the places to stop are 10 times better than the Pas side

Where in Austria are you going ...looking for next year

next
We got back late tuesday and had a great time ...

We tried Directa at the very top at the end of day 1 which was a bit of a mistake.lots of moguls on the first half and not a good slope to try for your first ever Red.
The next day we skied to El tar tar and tried a few reds in between there and back and the bottom half of blacks at Mirador & Aliga .Both times we skied back to Pas we went Via Gavatxa/Port

thanks Again for the advice

Where to try next year??
