Visitor Reviews of Foux d'Allos

Simon Davies from UNITED KINGDOM writes:

Highly recommended - no lift queues to speak of, the pistes were almost empty, there was good snow and loads of sun. There's no shortage of skiing - over 130 miles of pistes which are spread over a few mountains/valleys. Lift pass and ski hire are noticeably cheaper than in better known resorts.

La Foux links to Pra Loup (which has bigger hotels) and the Pra Loup side was a bit busier but nothing like the traffic jams I've tried to ski through in other resorts (Risoul, Verbier, Deux Alpes, Soldeu and Isola 2000).

Travelled and stayed independently - none of the major UK operators go there as you can only reach the resort from Nice airport (about 2 hours away). No package operators means a relaxed, family-friendly, atmosphere.

The only drawback is that the nightlife's a bit quiet but if you're after a holiday where the skiing is the main thing and want to try somewhere different then give it a try.
