 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi,
Just joined and looking around have been impressed with both forum/site! I was hoping someone would be able to give me some advice for a short business trip that I'm making on Sat 18th Dec travelling to Termignon. I want to pay a visit to this resort to check out village/site etc and also get some skiing in (any excuse!). Flying into Turin on Sat 18th Dec picking up hire car and hoping to drive to Termignon, spend day there then maybe base myself in Val Cenis (any recommendations as to reasonably priced hotels/B&B near to Ski Lifts/ESF if possible?). Flying back from Turin Monday evening. My question is do you think this is viable? AutoRoute and Viamichelin route planner make distances out to be not too bad. However when I spoke to someone in France they seemed to think that most routes/passes were closed? Is this correct? I would of thought they tried to keep these routes open for holidaymakers driving from Italy to Alps! Any help really appreciated. Also anyone have any experience of Termignon la Vanoise, Skiing, Village, B&Bs etc. Thank you.

P.S. Anyone know what the Skiing conditions are like in Termignon/Val Cenis presently?[/b]

Type23, Val Cenis is listed on the official French snow report site - SkiFrance.fr - but there doesn't seem to be a current bulletin. Things are pretty poor generally in the French Alps at present.
If you have flexibility on this, you might find more snow by heading from Turin to one of the higher Italian resorts in the Val d'Aosta - here are the the webcams.
