Random ski resort reviews

Flaine the resort is a place that one will either appreciate for the inventive use of concrete or loath it. I thought that it blended well and while not a picture post card Tyrolian resort it has its own charm. Its a quiet resort and smaller than a lot of people imagine.

There are a good variety of slopes, particularly blue and red slopes. If you are looking for advanced and black slopes, this is not the area for you.

Verbier is one of the best all round ski resorts, it has something for everyone. Great on piste/off piste, excellent nightlife and ease for international guests. The apres ski was amazing, visit the farinet for a rowdy evening or the fer a cheval for a quieter drink.
