    "Finally, the cheapest holiday I have found so far for this winter is a week from December 13 in St Sorlin d'Arves in the 75-lift Les Sybelles area of France. A self-catering two-bedroom apartment for six with Wasteland (020 8246 6677,
    www.wastelandski.com) costs just £57pp per week. You have to get yourself there, but the price includes a full area lift pass."

    Wasteland has a certain ring.

              If only wastelandski had a search engine that allows you to enter the date that you want to be there, and the number of people that are going, eh?

              What do you mean that they do?? Surely not...

                Yes, I only just saw the delights of wasteland, (sorry BigTime).

                But even then, I only get 2 potentials :S

                  im sure lots of you have gone skiing boarding in and around Europe. I could use some advice.

                  1) For new skiers Boarders , where would be the best place to go? I have skied before (10 years ago!!!! ), it will be a first for my wife/others.
                  2) I could do a city break in 2 days, however, how long would I need for a ski boarding trip to make it worth while?

                  3) Assuming there are just 2 of us, can you recommend places to go?
                  4) And assuming there are 6-10 of us going, can you recommend places to go?

                  The cheaper the better.

                  Thanks all
                  TM

                  La Tania is cheap and in the three vallees, so good option for all levels. Apres Ski in meribel excellent too and you can cab it back resonably cheap.

                  Andorra cheap, but crap.

                    you'll need to go high (as in altitude) or north for a decent chance of seeing some snow.

                      Taking the big group that you mentioned in the first post, there are five different chalets coming up on Wasteland in Les Menuires, which hasn't been mentioned so far (that I saw), but is good for beginners.

                      Alternatively, there might be some kind of website for looking for things at the Last Minute where you could find 97 skiing holidays for groups departing in the first week of December......
