skiing

Off to La Thuile at the start of Feb for a week, can't wait. Snow hasn't been great so far this season but should hopefully pick up in the next few weeks.

Mate is doing a ski season in La Plagne, so I'm off over there on the 22nd of Jan for 3 days. Can't wait!

Anyone have any recommendations how I should get there? Was thinking about renting a car from Geneva airport but it's going to cost me around €150 for car and parking.

Try here mate

Bens bus is about £76 / €93 return from gva.

If you are travelling from that London you can get Eurostar direct to aime la plagne then a bus to other resorts but you have to return from moutiers

Thanks for that bud. In the end, I just opted for the rental, seems a whole lot easier ahaa!

Seat Ibiza with winter tyres and snow chains. Should be ok?
 
Winter tyres will be fine, but chains are worth it incase of snowfall. The police will make you out them on or turn you around if you don't have them.

A 2 wheel drive car with winter tyres will handle a lot better than a 4 wheel drive car with summer tyres on. Winter tyres make a staggering difference.

I'll make sure I have them on me before I set off from the airport, can't be having them turn me around.

With any luck, I might catch you on the slopes ahaa!

don't put them on till you need to. if pulled just fix them to your car, or if it turns bad on the way.
