Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi,
Just looking at a quick 2 day trip from the Saturday to Monday of the first May Bank Holiday weekend. Fly out Sat, ski Sunday and Monday and fly back Monday PM.
My first choice was Stubai but there's no direct flights back to London from Innsbruck on the Monday so not sure that'll work.
Kaprun could be ok in and out of Munich with a 2.5 hour drive. Other options could be Engelberg or Grands Montets which both will still be open it seems. Tignes or Zermatt are probably too far from GVA.
Anywhere else that I'm missing that could work?
Thanks a lot,
Marc

Tignes?

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

Engelberg would work well with the 20.50 flight back from Zurich to Heathrow on the Monday evening.

Val Thorens is open until 8th May and is a 2 1/4 hour drive from Geneva.

You'll need to Register first of course.

IMV, Val Thorens trumps GM and Tignes for the very tail end of the season. A bigger collection of pistes at high altitude facing perfectly due North. Engleberg maybe wins if you want steep terrain, not that VT is lacking in that, and has a slightly better chance of fresh snow (no hard data on that but it always seems to attract storms)

Thanks again for the replies. I actually got away a few days ago and got to Verbier which was great. Some fun spring snow and chalky bumps up high.
