 Poster: A snowHead
|
Could anyone please give me some information on the Queyras ski area.
Are the villages lift linked?
Is it worth visiting if we don't go off-piste?
Any other information would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

You'll have to be more specific. Which villages?

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

Not sure I'd ever want to ski there other than ski-touring but Arvieux is a nice village (as ar many others) but they aren't linked and have pretty limited pisted / lift served skiing. However I can highly recommend the hotel http://www.lesfermes.com/.

dsoutar, aH...Yes, have been up in the summer. A beautiful place but not somewhere I would want to spend a hard earned week off skiing if I was sticking to piste. Might be ok if you want a tiny potter about, and then go sledging? 
Might need more local knowledge then!

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

MarjMJ, dsoutar, Thanks for the feedback. The information that I have found indicates that it is a very beautiful area, but maybe a little limited even for us.
dsoutar, One day, when I have a few more weeks holiday, I'll definately be giving ski-touring a go!

the Queras isn't a "ski area" - it is a region in the Southern Alps in France. there are numerous small resorts. looks like a fun place to base yourself with a car and try different areas, mix a bit of touring in etc
filingle has a place in the area:

the website has descriptions of some of the nearby ski areas
