Oh yeah, that’s right. Following the success of our first EVER(!) TSR Ski and Snowboarding trip earlier this year, we’re now recharged and ready for more! We learnt a lot from the last trip (when we took 53 students to Alpe D’Huez), but we can still learn more. Let us know where you’d like to [...]

Exciting times! I'm really hoping to go this time around, money permitting

Looks pretty awesome, only being skiing once and would love to go again. I'll look into it.

Would it be possible to somehow hold it a bit earlier? I wanted to go last time, but I feared the conditions would be a bit.. temperate

Or at a higher altitude, apparently it was getting a bit slushy around the afternoon last year?


edit: We at the Snowsports Soc at Bath Uni went to Val Thorens last winter, which was amazing. Also highest in Europe - so would hold up best in late-season, hopefully? Anyone else been?

Did you pop your feedback in the survey we have up? (If not, here it is: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/JPFS5LV)

It was a little slushy late time because it was heading into the off season. We're taking a look this time at when people can do and when they'd prefer, then checking out the prices so will get back with more when we have it

£339

£339

+ ski/board hire (which was about £60-£90 depending on the level of equipment you wanted) and lessons if you wanted them.

[Hugues*]

Wow that's a good price! For an entire week?

Yep. Price covers travel (which was a coach last year), ski pass and hotel - you then pay extra for equipment if you need to hire it and lessons if you want lessons. Then just need money for food and drinks / social

[Hugues*]

Sounds pretty decent, once the details come out I'll give it some thought.

Yess!

Filled out the survey.

Cannot wait to go - and we can book none TSR members too? my bestie wants to go with me too!

Val Thornes http://www.valthorens.com/ - heard its really good for skiing - highest in Europe and has amazing night life to go with it too, so plenty to do for students!

Ive been to Zell am See, Austria, however its a pretty small village where we stayed and there isnt much in terms of nightlife and apres skiing activites and it does cost quite a bit to get to the main town.

Obviously america is out of the range for most people was around a grand when i went but anyone thats been skiing in Vermont - Killington is amazing and the varitey there is amazing, but obviously its Europe only.

but Val Thorens if were looking for an all rounder
