Italy-Sauze D`oulx
|
 |
Ski the ‘Milky Way’ from this fun, good value resort. Sauze remains one of Italy’s favourite ski resorts with British skiers, and it is not difficult to understand why. The original village has retained its old world charm, while the newer part provides all you need for an enjoyable, fun-filled holiday. Après-ski can be as lively as you please with pubs, smart cocktail bars and discos. You can eat well and at reasonable prices in the resort’s many restaurants and pizzerias. Airport Name: Turin - Transfer time: 1 hour 15 mins Starting early and finishing late, the possibilities for non-stop nightlife in Sauze are many and varied. Start with a drink at the Crowded House, Paddy's or the Derby Bar and move on to one of the two disco's, Schuss or Banditos. The village nursery slope is at the foot of the Clotes chairlift but the main area which most beginners will use is at Sportinia, a wide open plateau also with easy runs. The parallel Rocce Nere chairlifts extend from Sportinia to Monte Triplex and from the top there is a vast choice of red runs linking the Monte Triplex area with Rocce Nere. In addition, the Rio Nero drag lift is the link lift to Sansicario. The Moncrons area will be a challenge for better skiers and the Genevris area also offers off-piste possibilities. Cross over to Sestriere and Sansicario with the new Basset 4-seater chairlift for a whizz down the World Championship Kandahar run in Sestri Freeriders will not be disappointed, there are trees to snake through and check out the Borgata and Sestriere black runs to get the blood going. Try the new fun snowboard park in Sestriere. Beginners are not left out with suitable slopes and English instr Crèche accepts children from 6 months-6 years of age. The unit of currency is the Euro.
