 Poster: A snowHead
|
Hi,
I've booked to travel solo to Les Arcs for a week. I plan on catching the Eurostar to Paris and then the Lunea Corail sleeper down to Bourg-St-Maurice on Friday 8 March and staying in Bourg right by the funicular up to Les Arcs. Sleeper back to Paris Saturday evening and Eurostar back to London on Sunday morning 17th March.
I've got a twin room for 7 nights and mercifully I haven't had to pay too much in the way of a single supplement, but I wondered if anyone was interested in a week in Les Arcs 9-16 March skiing, but the train I'm getting leaves and returns to London 8 and 17 March. Catered chalet, sharing a twin room would be about £390 (can't be exact because I've booked a twin for single use so can't be exact as to how much extra the chalet would charge to do it for twin occupancy).
Although not essential it would be great to travel with someone of a similar level to me. I'm an intermediate skier, I've skied for 7 weeks (this will be my 8th). I'm confident on most reds and will try the occasional 'easy' black but don't usually push myself too hard. While out there I'll probably book a couple of sessions/clinics with a ski school. I've heard good things about New Generation and they have a base nearby so I'll probably try them.
I'm a professional male, 27, married, not too fussed who I travel with so long as you're clean!

p.s. I posted something similar a few weeks ago until it was pointed out I was travelling in Paris school holidays. I've amended my dates.

headtothehill, sounds like you have it sorted well. If you fancy meeting up for a drink when you are in Bourg let ,me know. We could try and arrange a bit of a ski as well if you are interested. If you are staying down in Bourg it is quite a trek over to new gen in Peisey Vallandry. If you want to have some lessons send me a PM here or over on my facebook page and i can put you in touch with a few Instructors that could meet you at the funi. Hope that helps.
