I just spent a great week skiing in La Plagne where I had 5 days of group lessons with Daniel. He was an amazing instructor who helped me further develop my skiing abilities on many different slopes and under varied conditions and he knew the area very well. He is fun too! At the same time my kids were in classes with Nans and Manu and loved it too, so a super week all around, thank you Oxygen!

I would recommend Oxygene for adult ski school. Our instructor Ivano was an excellent instructor and he progressed everyone in our small group from skiing down easy blue runs on day 1 to confidently skiing down a black run on our final day. I would definitely recommend Oxygene.

A wonderful experience to have when you come to this charming city. The museum propose a good collection of impressionist paintings and also some Rodin sculptures. The entry fee is cheap, so it's a plus, definitely. If you like art, you should make the detour !

Col du Galibier

Reviewed By MJH1 - Bedfordshire, United Kingdom

We drove up to the top of the Col (bit hairy!) and then bombed down the mountain bike trail to Serre Chevalier. (where we had left another car). Great mountain decent - about 15km and 1100m decent. Not too tricky (probably a blue grade by local standards). The trail is marked Watch the weather - have a lightweight jacket as it got cool quick even in the summer

Thank you to Prosneige, Les Menuires for providing an excellent introduction to skiing. I had snowboarded in the past but was a ski novice. I took two 3 hour private lessons from Stefan and Federico who are both top class instructors. They listened to my goals and tailored their exercises, giving clear practical feedback on how exactly to adjust my position to ski safely and cleanly, getting the basics right and leaving me with great confidence to progress further in my own time. In addition, the Prosneige ski technician, Marc, understood and explained the cause of pain I felt in one of my feet. He recommended the solution while explaining why it would work. It made sense in theory so I went with and am so pleased I did. A fitted insole and some adjustments to the angle of the footplate in the boot resulted in a comfortable fit with no more pain. This along with the excellent instruction and great company made for the perfect introduction to skiing which I will certainly take forward. I highly recommended the Prosneige, Les Menuires team. Merci!
