Serre Chevalier. French resort with plenty of fantastic treelined skiing. Snow record is pretty damn good aswell.

Hampton, for tree lined you generally need below 2000m and thus much of Austria fits the bill. Google Ski Amade for great value.

Schladming has great tree lined skiing.Also prices are cheap.All the runs on the 4 linked mountains are tree lined and roughly 1000m of vertical which makes for long runs.

Sainte Foy has tree-lined runs for about half the ski area. Some good off-piste tree runs too.

Hampton, Quite a few tree lined runs in the 3V (Meribel and Courchevel) too. Val T next door is too high for trees which makes it very snow sure all season.
Agree with Frosty the Snowman, too. Maria Alm is pretty, and good value. (and from memory has quite a few trees)

For a high altitude resort Les Arcs has quite a lot of tree-lined skiing.

Gratuitous self plug  – but you did ask
Folgarida.
It's in the Brenta Dolomites National Park (Northern Italy) around 90% of the on-piste is on tree lined slopes.
No such thing as guaranteed snow unless on a glacier. But, I have worked at this ski school for the past 7 years and have never once not been able to ski back to the town.
(never once not – is that correct English ? oh well)

Hampton, I think Christopher, and rob@rar, pretty much have beat me to my 2 recommendations. Serre Che has Larches in the main, which have a dead twigs appearance as they are deciduous. Still nice though  The same would go for parts of the Milky Way [Sauze, etc]. Les Arcs has some nice treelined stuff too. More your typical christmas trees.

Hampton, The Sella Ronda is predominately tree lined, especially Alta Badia. The snow has been brilliant for the past few years but I suppose it depends when you want to go.

And love to help out and answer questions and of course, read each other's snow reports.

Hi Hampton,
Another vote for Schladming, just beware that piste grooming is a bit hit and miss outside the weekends but almost all runs tree-lined and prices on the hill and in the town very reasonable- if you go there try a meal at the Kirchenwirt in the village square.
