Publisher's Synopsis
With its famously skier-friendly and snowsure high-altitude resorts and huge linked lift systems, it's no surprise that France leads the UK ski holiday market. For many keen, mileage hungry skiers, it is the only place to go. It's also the spiritual home of the catered chalet holiday, a British speciality. The book: - covers France's top 85 resorts in detail - is fearlessly frank and uncompromisingly impartial in its assessments of resorts - meets the needs of the many, not the few - rates resorts for every standard of skier - includes scores of photos and 30 mountain maps - is designed to be used, with sewn binding and cover flaps for convenient page marking Conceived by the editors of Where to Ski and Snowboard, these new guides - researched and written to the same high standards - have less of the ephemeral detail that people can now get from the web, and more in-depth analysis of the merits of resorts - and coverage of more resorts, too.
