| Review Detail |
a really nice resort with loads of varying terrain.
loads of gondolas and you can almost do the whole resort without touching a drag lift. lift pass system is electronic, so no faffing about with producing your passes. loads of mountain cafe's for munchie attacks, but these are very expensive(£3 for a cuppa)
a well maintained board park with rails and kickers is situated to the far right of the resort, but this hasnt got its own lift and you either have to walk back up or use a chair lift to ride back down to it, this is quite time consuming so there is a long time between tricks.
we stayed at the EXCELSIOR hotel which has excellent service and cuisine. some of the food is a tad rich and they fuss a little too much for my liking. |
