Poster: A snowHead
|
My wife and I are staying in Les Glieres in Rue de Pinon BSM which claims to be 3 mins walk (but is at least 600 metres away) from the Funicular.
We are going from March 10th to 17th.
Questions:-
Where is the best place to hire skis - and leave them there each day as we do not want to stagger back to the vast studio (17m2!) with them
? Is it better to hire in BSM or 1600?
Where are good and cheap places to eat in BSM?
Where is a good place to foodshop - and lug it back to Glierers?
When are the shops open until - we arrive at 17:20?
Wew are leaving at 22:00 on Sat 17th - any ideas where we can leave our baggage for the day?
All hints and tips gratefully received!

hi snowbotbeentaken,
I stayed in les glieres last year for a week with the mrs. Funi is at least a 10 min walk, its a lot further than 600m to where you get on! we drove as had the car but saw people slugging their stuff over every day, there is a rental place at the foot of the funi that lets you leave your stuff at the end of the day its called polaire star. best and closest place to shop is Lidl (left out of glieres then first left at top of st) it officially closes at 7 (5? sun) but serve you later if they are still in. super u and intermarche and a good 25 min walk. we ate out every night at a different place each night, highlight was asian buffet (indochene) 20e for all you can eat also lots of cheap pizza places dotted around. as far as im aware there are no left luggage facilitys in bourg, most people sit in one of the bars near the station with there bags, station would be best bet to try!
