So where did you ski this winter ?

Wow what a FAB season. We took the Kontiki to France and Switzerland for a 4 week ski tip. LaClusza, Flaine, LesGets, Samoens then up to our hideaway resort in the Berner Oberland, Adelbodon. Interested to know your favouite Ski hideaways. I'm not a happy bunny now sitting in the office gaining pennies for the next trip

Hi kontiki,
We skiied in Pralognan in the french alps, for a couple of weeks. Moved around to haave a look at soem other resorts. And and and, two weeks ago we skiied in Scotland at Glencoe which was fabulous. Not bad for our first season skiing.

Great to hear like minded people. Don't see many GB motorhomes in the alps for skiing and recently joined this site so thought I'd check it out to see how many replies I got. Was that you first year skiing or taking the motorhome skiing ?

Hi Kontiki98
We skiied at Les Saisies - 4th skiing trip in 3 years - absolutely love it and can't get enough of the snow. Super resort and hoping to be back there for Christmas and New Year. Will try the aires this time as more central to the village.

Thanks Haganab for the link. Haven't seen this before and it's really usefull.
Have been to the LaCluza site a few times and love the place. Keep it a secret though otherwise we won't get in !!

Hi had one night at Piau Engaly in the Pyrenees, does that count?

Both daughters had a 1 hour lesson in the morning and then we left.

It was decided that as I am the only driver, (over 7.5t) and I didn't have winter sports insurance, that I had better not try it.

Hired a sledge though

get fun. Hoping to go next Jan for 2-3 weeks but a bit closer to home.

Hi We did the the grand bournard(in our 33" trail lite) and les 2 alps (by plane which took 16 hours to get there!!) go by motorhome much easier by far with grade "a" accommodation.
