Best skiing resort for a complete beginner?
Definately Andorra, and I would suggest Soldeu.
Excellent and cheap ski school and great learner slopes. Also TAX free so very cheap to live out there -- David ) http://kitemap.co.uk/stack |

Any suggestions would be appreciated. Saas Fee www.saas-fee.ch 'Saas Fee' - Good choice because of the extensive glacier pistes. Will certainly increase the appetite of the beginner. [...] Davos www.davos.ch [...] 'Davos' - Quite a lot of walking around in ski-boots. Best avoided with persons who are learning to ski. The day contains enough irritations and difficulties without this. Perhaps also Zinal. Very small. Easy logistics with parking outside hotel. Mainly families with young children. |

Meribel has several hotels very near the Doron Pub (aka Le Pub). So what, I hear you ask! Well, the there's a green run that runs behind the pub and back down to the main lift area in Meribel. But, and here's the nice bit, there are stairs leading down from that run to the side of the pub. It's a ten minute walk to the pub from the lift area. Get to those stairs and you can ski almost all the way back. Plus, in the mornings, go up those stairs and ski to the lifts, instead of walking! Cushty!! Great for apres ski too!! ;o) Just make sure you get the Rhodos 2 lift before the lifts close!! LOL |
