WE LIKE

  • Excellent venue for beginners and intermediates, the ski schools here are excellent. Good for families.
  • £112million has been spent on improving the skii area so new lifts and hotels abound .Good selection of reasonably priced restaurants.
  • Cheap heli-skiing if you want some pristine powder away from the pistes.

WE DON'T LIKE

  • Not as cheap as it used to be but then facilities have improved....
  • Not ideal for experts on piste - but plenty off stuff off piste.
  • Can get very crowded at peak times.
