Skiing or snowboarding in europe

Where are the best places to do this? Looking for a challenging hill and something easy to get to. Not something where I need to take 2 trains, 4 buses and then a sleigh ride to get to the mountain.

I heard Switzerland is pretty good but I see online there is a bunch of mountains there, and many people say some are not accessible very easily.

Also, Is there an official end of ski season over there? Some sites show it, others do not. I know some places are year round, I just don't know which ;)

Help is appreciated! thanks

Jordan

I went skiing in Switzerland when I was a teen. Forget where. Two hours uphill in a train, all day skiing down. Hotels and restaurants on the way down. Utterly fucking amazing.

Came back to the states, fifteen minutes in line, ten minutes up hilll, three minutes of skiing. Went down the slope once and said "Wow, this sucks" and never skied again.

Andorra, France, Switzerland - keep in mind that probably half the resorts in Europe don't have snow right now, freaking weird weather we have this winter

Switzlerand, Austria, France, Andorra. All expensive but all good.

To be hoenst you are spoilt for choice in those countries.
Interlaken is world famous however does require quite a few trains/chairlifts.

I dont ski alot so not your best guide, but I try and go once a year.

I would say look for resorts in Andorra. You have the added bonus of duty free there so 20 cigarettes for 1 euro and cheap drink too.

Skiing season ends around Easter for most of Europe, but varies from place to place. Some places you may not even get snow anymore even during peak season.

Austria is great but it mostly sucks if you have to fly into it.

I skied in Germany and Austria when i was a teen. Was a blast!!! But yeah i agree check with the weather conditions before you go because when i went there was not a ton of snow and we had to leave and find another resort.

my station is La Plagne in France - with it's recent cable car connection to Les Arcs is the largest skiable domain in Europe with. Access is excellent - with a direct train from Paris or London. Station closes 25th April I think.

From my experience at SnowGathering I'd have to say Kaprun in Austria. (I was terrible though!)

Les Gets, France

Was there a few years ago, had a great time. You can board on a glacier if you want, dropped off by a helicopter and all that. I have not been boarding all over Europe, but it's the best area that I have been to.

Les Crosets is fantastic but as said before do check for weather reports and snow.

Great food, drink and accommodation.

My little guy, only 8, passed his "gold medal" ski level (french grading) this year (he's been in ski school since 4) - I'm so proud of him cos he's much smaller than other kids his age, so we go skiing together in the afternoon after his morning classes finishes and I get a real proud father feeling skiing with him....

He can't ski well off piste, so I always take him there to level things out, but on the giant slalom, he beats me each time - this year, he whipped my ass by 16 seconds!! You can see the buzz he gets from it whipping his "papa's" ass!

It's such a shame we don't live nearer the stations for him to train more to perhaps make a career of it cos the French ski team requires full-on training week in week out each season. But hey, he's half British, so maybe he has a chance to slide into the Winter Olympics at some point representing the UK that is always crap! If so, watch out for a UK small dude doing Super G with a sponsorship sticker "I'm only half-borked"

Ended up going to Zermatt Switzerland. Was a nightmare to get to and a true story of Trains, Planes and electric taxi's, but worth every minute once I got there. Was also able to spend a day skiing in italy.

A slope with a snow cannon on it isn't really a thrill slope

Looks like a great resort though and much fun was had

This is near the bottom, which is where most snow starts to melt, ofcourse they will have snow cannons to extend the season. Keep in mind, this is the Swiss Alps and not "chuckies indoor snowpark"

yeah, I know - just ribbing. I know how they work and they put them on the blue runs to get people back home without gouging out the skis/board on rocks.

Some excellent pics though

You can ski/board the entire country of Andorra practically. The Pyrenees are amazing this time of year, although they didn't get quite as much snow as last year. It's a 4 hr shuttle from Barcelona or Girona and the shuttle is like 36EUR each way. Stay in La Massana. Best prices on skiing, VAT free shopping, and if you decided to take advantage of their tax haven, hide some money there!
