Tignes Vs Claviere

The are is huge, with skiing and boarding for all levels. If you are serious about getting a lot of milage under your belt and trying some challenging runs, it is one of the better places I have been.

If you are inetrested in 4 hours a day and lazy lunches and the cosmiploitan social scene I would avoid it like the plague unless you are.

Between 18-28
Seriously minted
Only interested in resorts which feel like someone has put big mountains in the UK

This being said, I rate it highly as a place to do your sport, if thats what you are doing, and if you have to chose do Vl d'Isere rather than Tignes, it is a little nicer in my opinion, and as the resorts are linked there is no worries about getting to places like Le Grand Motte if you want to.

I do most my riding in Austria, but from my limited experience Switzerland is the overall the best mix of the things I look for.

Height
Snow
8 hours on the mountain
People from all countries
Cost (more affordable this year)
Architecture
Beer

)


I agree with most of what you have said but you must be seriously minted if you think cost is a plus for Switzerland I have already posted on a previous thread some of this years prices prices, I was surprised at the beer prices though about six swiss for a 33cl draught, to my calculations thats £3.79. So if your holiday revolves around beer Switzerland the place. :shock:
