2002 Womens skiing holiday in La Plagne.WalkingWomen
---------Skiing 2008!








Low cost flights now available - book early for the best prices!



1-8 Feb - Alpine Skiing La Tania 1, France Full
Suits all skiers, incl. beginners - Diana & Madeline
7 nights catered chalet - excluding flight: £615

This is the first of 3 downhill skiing holidays in 2009 - enjoying the variety and superb facilities of Courchevel and the Trois Vallees. Suits all levels of skier from beginners to advanced.

Fuller detail -Enjoying the view over Courchevel.
La Tania 1350m is a small friendly resort just outside Courchevel with easy access to the Courchevel slopes and the superb Trois Vallees ski area. There are slopes here to suit all abilities, and with 15 of us in total there'll be plenty of company to attend ski school with or to ski with in small groups. For this holiday we have exclusive use of Chalet Nicole which has been so appreciated by other WW groups in the past. Chalet Nicole is run by a small chalet company called 'Family-Friendly Skiing'. The chalet has a convenient ski-in/ski-out position near the bottom of the red run into La Tania - just above the telecabine which accesses all of the Courchevel slopes. Alternatively it's a short walk from the blue run. Chalet staff drive beginners to ski school in their minibus, and pick you up later to make life easy! (English speaking instructors).

Chalet NicoleThe chalet has 7 twin bedrooms and 1 single, all fully ensuite, mostly with baths. The single room is smaller and has a shower (£10 a night single supplement). The chalet has a good-sized lounge/dining room on the 2nd floor built around an open fire. There's a sauna downstairs, and a hot tub outdoors for an after ski soak! Breakfast & evening meals will be prepared for us by the chalet staff except for the one evening we go out to eat. The food was very good last year.

Courchevel has snow conditions to dream about due to its largely north facing slopes, its height, and its large number of snow cannons right down to the village. La Tania was originally built as an Olympic village with lots of chalets, après ski bars and little restaurants. It probably has the friendliest atmosphere of all the Courchevel resorts. It is approached by lovely tree runs - a blue and a red - and enjoys very fast access to the higher slopes and a good lift connection to both Courchevel and adjacent Meribel.
