Skiing in the Alps

by Igraine - last update: Oct 30, 2005

View on the chalets
This year I went on wintersport holiday for the first day of my life. It was a great experience, one i will certainly repeat.

As you will understand there are no cultural highlights here. Its a ski station, with hotels, appartments and restaurants and such.

Earlier this week I heard that in the Tour de France they will make La Toussuire a finish place in the 2006 Tour de France.
The chalets in the early evening.
Eat my powder!
The "pro´s" in the tiefsnee. I was told it was good skiing off piste in this ski area.

 What a surprise to find a page on La Toussuire, the place where I first learned to ski I have not visited it for a long time and I know it is not any more the little place I knew. I am glad you enjoyed it!
