Valmeinier Snow History

Tsubame Highland Lodge - Staying at the Wild Side of Myoko

After the Sapporo olympics of 1972, Japan invested wildly in ski resorts but a combination of economic stagnation, declining population and a strong currency took their toll and the bubble burst. Hundreds of ski resorts were subsequently abandoned and the majority that survived (still about 600) haven't generally made enough money to reinvest. Old lifts and tired buildings are still widespread at many resorts but those are the only negatives in a country where so much scores so highly. The Japa

Just came back, skied there 2 days and we did almost the full domain Valloire included, so limited for a whole week. Many slopes are sun-oriented, so nice to ski as long as there is enough snow. On the steep parts it was already limited (some black/red slopes were not open, mainly in Valloire and this begin of March) In Valmeinier Villages, limited accommodation, whereas Valmeinier 1800 has enough but the esplanade is a ski-bottleneck. The two have no regular bus connections, so best to park in 1800 for the evening. Secured non-groomed piste is limited, only black Coterieux slope. Nice views.
