![](templates/subSilver/images/full_size.gif) Poster: A snowHead
|
When I was in L2A I was quite impressed by the amount of free toes a beginner could use.
If I knew that when I booked, I would not of bought her a weekly pass.
Anyway. Does anyone know any other resorts, preferably in Austria but anything considered where the mrs could "pootle" about not costing me money.

My first three days on skis were on the beginners slope in Ellmau at village level. Ellmau is faitly low though and by the end of the week the snow had all but gone. I seem to remember one in the Nasserein area of St. Anton as well but memory's a bit hazy.

Some are @polc1410, but you have to walk to them, which was a pain for the mrs who hates doing anything in ski boots at the best if times.
@altis, do you have trouble getting boots
