Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better! Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

Is there a web site that publishes the lifts that are operational in Val Thorens?

I'm sure I checked the website last season to see what lifts were open. Maybe they changed the website, or it's not yet running because the resort is not fully open yet?

It is a new web site. I have looked though it but cannot see a status report. Resort opened 22nd Nov. FRom another thread, someone in resort stated 6 lifts only were open.

BMF_Skier, the new website seems to have "lost" the proper listing of open lifts... Only info I can find is on this page, and just gives a number of the open lifts... http://www.valthorens.com/winter-en/live.55.html

So if the resort is only 1/4 open do they still charge you a full rate ski pass?

Megamum, opening weekend was €20, Setam are very good when it comes to discounting the lift prices for limited lifts and bad weather. I would imagine there is a discount if you go into one of the lift pass offices at the min.

It will also be incredibly quiet as it’s so early in the season, so not really viable to run all lifts and patrol all pistes. I was over there mid-December last year and the whole mountain was open, yet all lifts and pistes were pretty much dead....

Hummmmm.......Just over a week until we go snowHead only 10 'proper' lifts open, and 25 pistes. Enough to have fun on I bet, but I'm sure it will make it difficult route planning when you won't know what's open and what's not until you're on top of them

Megamum, how many lifts did you use on your last visit?

Frosty the Snowman, I take your point - 10 or 11 (I know it was more than I expected to!), but I know I didn't use quite a number of the ones that it currently shows as open and was using a lot of those that it still shows closed against
