Poster: A snowHead
|
Not non skiers, as such, but for people who maybe only want to ski for an hour or 2.
Looking ahead to 2024, it is looking like we'll have a mixed bag of 10 coming on the trip. 3 of whom are ok skiers, but are also not prepared to ski all day every day (wierdos).
Is there much else going on on L2A apart from the skiing?
I should add that I'm thinking L2A as I would very much like to utilise Easiski is she happens to be available.

Obviously A snowHead isn't a real person

@SHAP, I believe there's quite a nice swimming pool complex in the centre of LDA (not that I've ever used it). From the Venosc area of LDA there's a gondola that goes down to the actual village of Venosc (where Easiski lives). Venosc village is quite pretty with some nice artisan shops and eating places.

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

Food here is excellent. Big group of us, no complaints. Everyone was having food envy of each others plate!
Lamb Shank was amazing.
Got an inkling it may be special when most of the clientele was non tourists & locals!
Sandwich bar next to Diablo lift done a decent baguette roll.
We stayed at chalet combs (white or black - cant remember which), situated next to hotel Ibiza.
Chalet has a pool, cinema room, large TV in living area, hot tub, etc. So can easy spend a day just chilling out in the chalet with a long slow & low cook stew in the oven. Recommended if you are a big group.

@SHAP, I love L2A, had some of my happiest days down there. But it's great for it's vast, adventurous, meanwhile not crazyly dangerous off piste (has recently become considerably worse though). And it's stunning views. But not for the nicety of the town itself which is tbh more or less non-existant. If you are not too keen on skiing, it's a rather bleak place. Grenoble is an hour by car, but that's about it. Oh, they got an ice rink. But who doesn't?

I liked the skiing there but it's an ugly resort and was quite rowdy.
Somewhere like zell am see would be good for non skiers. Easy train journey into salzburg and some nice walks
