Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi, We are staying in a friends place in Seez this winter. Does anyone know how often the bus between Les Ecudents for La Rosiere and the Funicular for les arcs actually runs? I am worried it may not be as easy as we would like!
Cheers,

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

I think there's only half a dozen or so per day.

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

Hi Steve,
Thanks lots - good to have such a quick response to my first message!!!
Looks like a car may be required then.
Cheers.

I asked for the timetable for this winter in Bourg TO two weeks ago. No timetable yet, but the Tourist Office said there will be a new shuttle operator for this season. Should not affect the timetable, but these free services do have a habit of changing from year to year. Last season it ran every day, and I often saw them pass with just one of two people in them.
Les Ecudets - do you know it? I mention it because it is very low and the snow for the return at the end of the day from mid-March & April can be patchy - can be uncomfortable for beginners. Earlier in the season there is no snow problem, but it is a long, slow, cold old fashioned two person lift. Wrap up well.

AndrewsPeppers, you can always take the lift back down to les Ecudets if you need to.
BTW, it's not a 2 person lift, it's a 4. Long and slow, but you do gain a whole lot of height! Never found it too cold as it's out of the wind compared to Roches Noire, etc.

Thanks AndrewsP,
We will ski Les Arcs mostly and know the funicular well.
Have never been to Les Ecudets but thought it might be fun for a change. Perhaps not so fun if the lift is as bad as you say!!
Cheers,
A

Adiethesailor, ignore that, the lift is fine, just a little slow.
You'll still be skiing quicker from arriving at Ecudets than you would from arriving at the base of the funicular.
