Have just returned from Meribel & thought I would warn you all this is not the place to go if you are on a budget (unless your budget is that of a Russian oligarch.) The pistes are amazing though & should be enough to take your mind off the price of a pint. I particularly enjoyed the Bartavelle black piste at the top of the Roc de Tougne drag lift & Combe Vallon is ...

There's no two ways about it - Ischgl is just absolutely fantastically brilliant. Amazing ski area, fast and efficient lift system, no queues at all, great food and drink up the mountain (not on the Swiss side tho - expensive). And the apres-ski and night life, my friends... Legendary. Out of this world. Why anyone would ever go skiing in France is utterly beyond me ...

I visited this resort at New Year 07/08 with my girlfriend. It was recommended to us by my Austrian uncle. Our lasting impression was very good. In short its relatively high for Austria (1400m) so its reliable for snow, there are expansive pistes linked with Fiss and Ladis, the village is compact and attractive and its practically unknown to the British skiing ...

Overall an awesome holiday. Some of the most spectacular sights ever, snowboarding on some of Europes highests pistes. Even a chance to ride on fresh powder when we were there, followed with 5 days of blue skies and sunshine. Couldnt ask for much more! Plenty of pubs, restarants, and a few clubs to keep you busy at night. The bowling alley is a good bit of fun if you ...

Great high altitude resort for beginners and intermediates. Few challenging runs for higher intermediates and experts. Good potential for off piste adventures given the right conditions. Too many drag lifts on the higher slopes limits access for snowboarders. Also the snow park was closed all week. The resort was very quiet the week we were there so night life / ...
