 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi Snowheads,
I booked a flight to Lyon last night and need to figure out the rest now, I was thinking of trying to get to Tignes, or Three Valleys, or anywhere with good snow and bit going on. Arriving Sun 11th March about 9am and leave around same time on Sun 18th March, so if there's someone out there with a spare place in a chalet, great. Or, wants to share a room, great. Or, knows what to do, where to go, and wants to buddy me, great. Let me know.
I'm an actor/lecturer, in my mid-thirties, with a rare spare week on my hands. After a 5 year gap, I'm itching to get back on a board and be in the mountains, but I want to do it on the cheap, so budget ideas welcome.
Cheers,
Rob

Hi Rob, I use Chamexpress from geneva, im sure they do from lyon too, its 28 euros each way but is door to door so very reliable, better to get there quick and keep your time for the slopes or pubs!!! i also am staying in an amazing hostel. its spacious, clean, great kitchen facilities, nice hot showers, 16 euros for a 4, 5 or 6 bed dorm. gite alpenrose, hardly any reviews of it online so was quiye wary but stayed in jan and its a hidden gem!!!! you'll LOVE cham, there are tonnes of options where you can ski there and the apres ski is brilliant!

Hi Michelle - I'm a solo boarder looking to get away in march & Just stumbled upon your post, it sounds like it could work out quite cheap to do 10 days instead of the usual 6/7 if I stayed in this hostel.. I've always wanted to go for longer than the standard issue package...hope u dont mind but i have a couple of questions for you; how do you go about booking/checking availability on this hostel? website was in french and me no speaky! also what do you do for a ski pass for the periods you go there for and how much do you pay? it seems it's 50 euros a day which at 8-9 days certainly adds up..
cheers
max
