Installation of cannons on Creux underway

Creux is closed to pedestrians and mountain bikes officially as cannons are being installed this summer. Work well underway now. You saw it first on www.latania.co.uk however if you “like” my Facebook page Nickski, https://www.facebook.com/#!/pages/Nick-Ski/211732418930111, you’ll find more pictures of what is happening in the Three Valleys this summer. Cheers Nick

New Reberty Chairlift

Foundations spotted during the winter and as I suspected they are making it easier to get to the new Sunny Express which is a bit under-used. Sign on the side of the this top lift station indicates a basic chair-lift but nothing obvious lower down as to where it’s starting. Would be perfect if it linked in with Masse as the Doron chair can be busy. Nick www.nickskithreevalleys.co.uk

Welcome Alpine Elements to La Tania – New Hotel Montana Tenants

The Hotel Montana in La Tania is under new management with UK based Alpine Elements and their Weekend Ski Brand iGOSKi running it for the next 3 years at least.

iGOSKi  specialises in Weekend Breaks with Wed to Sun then Sun to Wed changeovers – so no excuses for not having that extra mini-trip next season!

Between both companies they expect to bring about 3700 to 4000 guests to La Tania next season.

There are also plans to promote and enhance a summer programme for British Mountain Bikers, Walkers and Alpine enthusiasts in La Tania and The 3 Valleys.

Euro hits 1.28 Bank Rate – Skiing 15% cheaper than last year!

The 1.28 barrier broken at 14:30 on 19 July 2012. The highest rate since around October 2008 but already 15% up on last Winter – so if it holds up your spending money could go further next season in the (euro zone) Alps.
