 Poster: A snowHead
|
Ski trip for Ski and snowboarders - all welcome. - all inclusive
Dates:
17 to 24 December 2011
We will depart London late 16th Dec (19:00) and should be able to ski on the Sat afternoon.
To get home before Xmas the coach will leave the slopes a day early. So the coach trip will be returning on Friday 23rd in the afternoon to get us all back before Xmas. It will mean 6 full days skiing.
Where
As it is early in the season, I have booked a resort with access to a glacier, has a large ski area and has something going off the slopes as well.
Tignes has the best ski area I have ever ski’d. I would go there every year but the fact is, it is usually too expensive to do so! This year it seems we have hit the jackpot! It is huge (265km), you can ski over to Val D’Isere, get an express funicular to the top of the glacier at 3500m from resort level, which in itself is at 2100m. The UCPA is ski in ski out and is situated a short rope tow from the front door. You can ski back. This resort caters extremely well for all levels. There is plenty for all to ski. It is so vast that is able to be very beginner friendly as well. Has loads of fast lifts, long cruising runs and is just the best place I have ski’d. It has decent shops, a few bars and generally a very nice place to ski.
Accommodation:
Again, we are off to the UCPA as they offer fantastic value for money and we get entertainment, subsidised bar, lessons, ski hire and loads of brilliant food! Some rooms are twins, others in fours. Last February I stayed in a twin with a balcony and en suite facilities. So it will be mixed size rooms. More later though.
Costs
Only £576 for everything. Lessons, transport, glorious food, ski and boot hire, accommodation and a full Espace Killy Lift Ticket. Everything. I have finalised a deal with Action Outdoors for this package to Tignes, provided we get 40 people going and are able to pay deposits within a month. I will send out a voucher code soon and you then use it to book yourself on the trip. Any questions please get back to me.

Very interested.
Have you set up a group on Action Outdoors? Or do you just go through the normal process and add the voucher code?

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

Hi Rob, great to hear it. I have got the voucher codes so they will add you to my group automatically according to the voucher code.
If you want any info or to chat let me know.
Codes are with Coach:
Ski or Snow Half Time Voucher code DSTIG-01 £576
Ski or Snow Beginners Voucher code DSTIG-02 £593
Beginners must take the beginners course.....no discussion – it’s Full Time Instruction, so a bit of a bargain.
Bookings should be completed Monday – 28th August for the discount to be valid.
