Will be heading off skiing this January and again in March with my friends. I've already been to Arinsal, Andorra, Sauze Doux, Italy and Livigno, Italy in the past. We are looking for somewhere which has loads of runs and is particularly suited to Intermediate and Advanced Skiiers. It needs to have a snow park, cheap beer…

Will be heading off skiing this January and again in March with my friends. I've already been to Arinsal, Andorra, Sauze Doux, Italy and Livigno, Italy in the past. We are looking for somewhere which has loads of runs and is particularly suited to Intermediate and Advanced Skiiers. It needs to have a snow park, cheap beer and cheap food as we'll be in apartments.

Was thinking about super resorts in France like Meribel Valley, Les Arcs, Chaminox etc. Any one been here and have any recommendations?

Any Ideas would really be appreciated.:D

Howerya,

Been snowboardin in France, Spain, Switzerland & Austria. (& NZ)
Imho France has it all - especially anywhere with a glacier &/or high altitude.
Tignes (3 valleys) & Morzine (Portes du Soleil) are both epic.
Both have loadsa runs (100+ each), good parks, plenty of cheap options for food & booze (if you're self-caterin)
Da other handy thing is that both resorts are linked to others
- Portes du Soleil & Espace Killy are MASSIVE areas.
It'd take ya a season to see everythin

Can't go wrong really
Enjoy
