 Poster: A snowHead
|
Might have a chance of a decent deal and I was thinking of booking.
Going with the family so a high end sporty resort is not so important more easy access skiing, decent intermediate slopes and not mega priced lunch stops (is that possible now?), friendly ski school etc.
Any thoughts anyone?
Cheers

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

scotabroad, I've been to St Sorlin D'Arves, which is also in the Les Sybelles area, a couple of times and it ticks most of your boxes. Le Corbier is pig ugly though. St Sorlin review here

I've skied in La Toussuire, many times, which is next to Corbier although not for a few years. I used to recommend La Grange if you ski over to La T, the view is really good its next to a piste just before you get down to the village. Ask in resort and someone will know. As a point of interest I think I read that the French rozzers recently arrested three members of ETA holed up in Le Corbier last month.

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

I have been there for a weekend in March for the last two years and will be going back again next season.
I only bought the odd coffee in the bars but thought they were cheaper than elsewhere.

scotabroad, I've skied this area at Xmas (from a base down the valley)....the slopes were fine but the links between the resorts were closed so the area was limited. Simply solved for us by tossing the ski boots in the boot, hopping in the car and tootling round to the neighbouring resorts in our ski socks. Nice skiing and the prices on the mountain were very cheap (but that was a few years ago before the Euro crashed!). I'd happily go back there again sometime.
