alpine holiday in December
I am trying to work out a reasonable option for an Australian family of 6.



They will be based in Geneva but would like a long weekend ( 12th, 13th December with a night or 2 either side) in a picturesque area which has options i addition to skiing ( walking, pool, spa etc)



They would be dependent on public transport, probably train. I had looked at Chamonix but everything was very expensive even though it ticked all the boxes from a tourist point.



Has anyone a suggestion please?



I will post in the ski forum also



Thanks

 Hi
The best deals for skiing,walking,spa bath,snow shoeing etc are to be found in Brides les Bains in the 3 vallees area of France staying in modernised sc apartments formerly the 1992 Ski Olympic village .

The G and L ski group-formerly run by G.Lowcalski-has run 3 long weekends there in association with the Nordic club.It's only 2.5 hours drive or train7bus from Geneva.

Zeh group plans to run some long weekends there again in Jan and Mid March avoiding French school holiday dates and high prices.
It is open I believe from Mid December.

call me for more info
