Poster: A snowHead
|
I am travelling to Les Arcs at the beginning of march. I gather there is luggage storage at polarise star at the base of the funicular, but that opens at 09:00 and we arrive at 6:30ish.
Any of you guys got any ideas to pass the time?
And also on the following Sat our train departs at 22:00 so we have a long wait after our days skiing and a little swim and shower in the local swimming pool.
Please help

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

Charliefoxtrot, not a lot to do at all - change into ski gear, have breakfast IME. Get to Funi early to buy lift pass. On return have dinner in Bourg.
I thought the Polaire Star opened at 8:30 but my memory might be failing.

For the way back I can recommend the pizza restaurant opposite the station called something like Bazoom. They have loads of space to dump gear while you enjoy their pretty good pizzas, and not expensive either.

Perfect thanks guys. My intention was to find food as soon as I got there, it seems to naturally happen that way. And the beer too! Funny how that always happens.
One of my party needs to rent and has a deal with precisionski. Has anybody any dealings with them?

Funicular starts at 07:00 am on Saturdays if that suits your accomodation.
Precisionski in Bourg? You have a bit of walking to do carrying skis.

Calibrate your watch at the 800 m bar? Score some off the hippys in the car park? Collect spin drift Mcdonald tokens for when it opens shortly?
