Poster: A snowHead
|
I guess it depends what people mean by 'cruisey'. To me SkiWelt is perfectly cruisey, no difficult runs at all, great piste preparation and lots of nice huts to cruise to. If the OP wants easier than that, I'd suggest La Thuile or Cervinia, parts of which are so flat you have to keep poling...

Thanks for advice on resorts queen bodecia, . I realise there are a couple of bits of les arcs that you have to pole yiur way to the next run. But we found these few and far between so didntmind when we came across them. Personally, I found the skiwelt too challenging for what we like (we ciile do the blues and reds but didnt enjoy them as they knackered the legs). Its the first ski holiday where legs have ached all week...taking the fun out of the slopes. I will price up la thuile and compare slopes/accomodation to la/lp. Thanks again

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

Jon Ford, but you said there was v heavy snow in the SkiWelt when you were there - that will always create heavier-going and make the legs ache.
If you want easy and inexpensive French cruising, come to Les Saisies but you'll need to put your own package together. However, heavy snow falls here too, quite often! A ski resort which doesn't get heavy snow sometimes is a bit of a failure, really.

Chasseur, and if the legs get tired it is so easy to get down to the nearest village, have a refreshing beer and hop on the bus. No chance of being stranded in the wrong part.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Jon Ford, just a random thought, but perhaps some quality lessons would help with tired legs?? It maybe something like leaning back a bit which makes legs overly tired.....

True to last 3 posts. The snow dud make skiing v difficult and slopes were better on the 2 sunny days. Perhaps I am being biased as les arcs was pure sun fir the 7 days, however, I wasnt a fan of the slopes in skiwelt. We werent a fan of anyof the runs. In L.A. we loved most of the blues and happily did them over and over. Been thinking about itmore and more and I think L.A. or l.p. is the 1 for us for next year. Not sure how manymore ski hols we rgoing to be able to do as thinking of starting a family so may go L.A. to k ow we will enjoy. Will still check out all the suggested resorts first though
