Chalet In Serre Chevalier & Getting there from Meribel

me but he's young(ish), fit and a good skier. It seems that he can get a
bus or train to Oulx and from there get to S/Chev on a bus or taxi via
Cesana and the Montgenevre pass. Any better ideas?

Hello,

I need to get from near Meribel to Serre Chevalier in March, and I'm very interested to hear whether your group member skied across Val Thorens and down to Orelle, and if so, how it went.

Thanks, Sunil

Sorry - I cannot be any help. My friend went down ill and flew home instead
of skiing over to join us. Took the £300 he owed me with him, so I'd better
call and see how he is feeling, now that I'm home

We stayed in the Pierre & Vacance apartments - quite OK and we plan to
return next year. You can check their website for details, but from their
brochure they seemed pricey. We were on a package (flight, coach and room
for £300 each via Iglu.com)which I thought was quite a good deal. There
are other cheaper apartments available elsewhere in resort, including right
opposite the Aravet bubble. If you want some info say so and I'll look out
what I picked up last week. Serre Che is a good resort - it is the 4th
biggest in France and says it has 300 days un each year. Snow right now is
very poor - it only had a few inches last week when other areas had so much
and by Friday it was getting very thin, icy and stony. Hopefully you'll be
OK by March, but anybody there right now will not be having a very good
time. If you want a decent and inexpensive restaurant I'd recommend the
Pastalli (I think that's how it's spelt) in Le Bez, where there also seem to
be a few others.

Have a good time
