What do you mean by "budget"?

Are you looking for a package, or just talking about lift passes?

Wht do you mean with budget? Hotel, Chalet, Apartment? What expect you
from the resort?

I'll be living and working in Switzerland possiblity for 3 months...so
looking for just a day pass and maybe 1 night lodging....

by "budget"...I mean I'll probably pack a sack lunch with me and some
granola bars...if that gives you a better picture...

thanks.

Right.

So you are looking for somewhere with reasonably priced day passes is
the most important thing.

Which part of Switzerland? Presumably you don't want any saving in
lift pass costs to be eaten up by higher transport costs?

You didn't exatly say were you stay. Because the Resorts at the Tessin
are limited:
www.airolo.ch
Monte Tamaro at Locarno: http://www.montetamaro.ch/
Bosco Gurin at the Magga Vally: www.bosco-gurin.ch
Ther are 2 Lifts at the Valle di Blenio(Campo Blenio + Lecontica)
http://www.nara2000.ch/nara.nsf/Go/M...A?OpenDocument

San Bernardino is Graubünden but on the south side of the Alps
www.sanbernardino.ch
And Splügen on the north side oft the San Bernardino Pass.
http://www.viamalaferien.ch/deutsch/...me_winter.html
There is a bus from Belinzona to San Bernardion and Splügen, but a car
is better, i think.

The Lukmanier Pass is night closed and day open, what i know. So you
can also got to Disentis and Sedrun at the Vorderrhein Valley.(With
car) www.disentis.ch

Vor 2 days you can drive trough the San Bernardino Tunnel down to Chur
and up to:
Arosa www.arosa.ch , Flims/Laax www.alpenarena.ch , Lenzerheide
(Lenzerheide, Valbella, Parpan, Churwalden) www.lenzerheide.ch

Or trough the Gotthard tunnel and up to Andermatt. www.andermatt.ch

Hi Ron,
you seem to have got a great response to an area I know nothing about!
Why don't you switch areas?
We have an old farmhouse the other side of the valley to Chatel.You are welcome to come on your budget skiing trips if you bring paying friends with you!
I'll give you a freebee if you get a group of 4-10 people on a self catered/catered hol.
Ski pass is all you'll have to cough up for!
A deal?
If there are any more of you out there,then same offer applies.
See you all here this winter!!!!!!

Bellinzona - Lenzerheide ~115km/1:40
Bellinzona -Arosa ~144/2:00
