Hello Everyone,
It's almost time...4 more sleeps until we head to Les Gets. A numpty in our group booked a hotel on Friday night in Troyes not Dole, leaving us with a thrilling 5 hour journey on Saturday through to Les Gets. Any advice on when to avoid transfer traffic up the mountain? We will be down to our last malteser by then.
Thanks

MiddleEnglandMum, Welcome to  - I'd suggest posting your question as a new topic in this section - not many people will read it on the end of this thread. "New Topic" button is on the top left hand-side under the "Resort Reviews & Trip Reports message"
My gut feel however is to leave early, get there early and go skiing..

radar, Hi
We were in Peisey Vilaret, directly below the Vanois express and there is only one shop a small intersport
In the main part of Peisey there is a muchn larger Intersport and they had a much greater range of kit
The small one was excellent, friendly and happy to swap stuff around
Enjoy!!

We are actually staying in Moulin, the chalet provides free transfers to the lobster pots, or the local bus runs every 30 minutes and stops right outside, for those wanting to try the L'ancolie, I would recomend it,the set menu was €39.00 for three courses, I was stuffed after the first, but managed to keep going, its not cheap but compared to what you pay on the mountain (lasagne, burger and two small beers yesterday €50) its good value you have to book
martyngb, stuck my head in there and had a nose around (its also the Sherpa) didn't have the ski's I was looking for, mind you neither did the others

Hi all,
New to this board, and just wanted to find out what the situation is like in Peisey at the moment? Any chance of skiing back to the chalets?
I'm going the first week in March, staying with Snowcrazy, and from their info it doesn't look too bad at all in terms of getting about.
Ancolie - I know it's in Nacroix, but how difficult is it to get to from the chalet? Worth it or just rely on the places in Peisey?
A load of questions I know, but any info would be much appreciated.
Cheers

The snow reports on the whole are look amazing. Any update on whether it's possible to ski down into Nancroix yet?

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

BenHK, if you're with Snowcrazy in Peisey, then you're staying at Eagles Nest or Marigold (in group of buildings on the left).
The usual way down to these chalets from the Vanois level is genepi's "Lobester Pots" and then a short walk.
To ski it would involve going through some trees, various gardens and across a road or two.
Possible, but maybe not sensible.

Thanks Jonpim. Think I'll probably be catching the lift back. Seems like a decent excuse to stop for a drink in Plan Peisey on the way down.

You know it makes sense.

Doing well to ski back to Peisey... more of an off-piste route..

I've skied back to Peisey under the yogurt pots, it's proper knarly, I ended up in a little ravine, Kitty was not impressed, only did it the once. I'm sure there must be an easier way to ski back, but never tried again as snow was marginal when I was there.
