 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi, I was planning on heading out to La Tania a few days before the season officially starts on 10th Dec. Altibus doesn't start it's service until 10th - does anyone know of any other bus services that might be running between La Tania, Moutieres and Val Thoren? I'd like to get a cheap supermarket shop in and maybe get over to Val Thoren for a day of early skiing.
Someone on here mentioned that hitching between resorts was ok but my only experience of this is mates getting stranded in Tignes once and a 'friendly driver' charging them €120 for a lift back to La Daille!

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

Not much in the line of bus services outside of the main season. Even if you can make it down to Bozel there is only one bus a day down to Moutiers which is the school bus, leaves at 06:55 and returns when the schools finish.
Probably better to rent a car outside of the winter and summer seasons.

You will also find that there is essentially nothing open in La Tania until the season starts. Le Praz will be a bit more lively, and is walkable from La Tania.

It is extremely unlikely that the links to VT from Courcheval will be open that early.
As others say if you want to ski VT that early stay in VT.

I've been going to VT for many years the first or second week december and can't remember the links being open.
If you stay in La Tania then rent a car, otherwise stay in VT.

Thanks all for great advice as always. I'm in La Tania for the season was just wondering about going a bit early.. not the best idea by the sounds of it!
While I have your attention, does anyone know if the free bus still links to Meribel? I read somewhere that it does but doesn't run during school holidays.
