A charming mountain town with great access to a huge ski area. A really good option if you’d like to experience stay somewhere a little less hectic but still has great lift connections.

Fabulous resort for lots of skiing; very large area and easy to navigate. Some runs need either taking care of better or re-labelling as more difficult but overrall lots of good skiing.
