Hello

I am trying to work out the budget.......... :cry:

Can anyone give me an idea what lunch is costing these days on the hills around Wagrain, nothing fancy?(I hate packed lunches) Not to mention the apres ski pint?

Going on the 8th March for week, bit worried about this temeprature rise that people are talking about though.......

Many thanks

Really depends on how much you eat, I ski with people who eat a full lunch, Me and Mrs W like a snack lunch, I suppose you could always diet that would work out cheaper :cry:

I agree. I used to ski with my bro. He liked to book places and have a 3 course meal! Thats valuable skiing time wasted!

(and money) 8)

Correctomundo. Fill up at breakfast, snack lunch, plenty of short drink stops during the day, a few beers apres ski, and dinner. Lunch is a waste of time and money, as you said.

Is that the only correct answer? Am I allowed to meet up with my friends and enjoy sitting around a table with them for an hour or so?

Obviously I'm doing it for the benefit of people who take short lunches so as to get the slopes to themselves :mrgreen:

I can see both sides, I do normally take an hour for a ski lunch I think the kids need that time to rest :D

thanks caron yes lol sorry, but ski skool normally has about an hours lunch and to be honest as i am normally on my own i would feel a bit daft sat at a table on my own but if my friends ski we would probably do what you do

We were so tempted to try this in Ruka this year........lunch at piste bar soup buffet 12 euros as many helpings as you want and as much bread and toppings.......pay for one and then the other person had the refil. Would love to have tried it to see if any-one noticed.

Would be nice to eat with the other half as opposed to after 8)

Die Gulaschsuppe. (feminine :shock:)

This is a Dave Mac lunch daily, is worth a full meal, and is best value for calorie replenishment. Takes about 8 minutes out of the skiing, and you can catch up all those that skip lunch quite easily.

Generally 3.5Euros in the lowest cost valley place, and 5.0 Euros on the mountain.

Not to be confused with: ~ "Ich mache aus dir Gulasch" ~ ("I'll beat the living daylights out of you") :twisted:

I take it back. I meant that spending a long time over a big lunch is IMO not a good way of spending time. Usually I ski with my friends, so we dont need to meet up, so stopping for lunch is a group decision, and usually takes around 40 minutes and involves guhlasch suppe, spag bol, or something that offers instant energy! That, and a nice fizzy drink to boost the sugar levels.

I guess if you dont ski with your friends its nice to meet up, although thats what I thought people used apres drinks for. I must admit, I do like to have a little break if its nice and sunny, especially 20 minutes in a sun chair 8)
