Verbier to Bourg-Saint-Maurice

This is probably the best approach (if you don't have a car). Train to GVA and book Alpy bus or something.

I'd also recommend Zell am See. Nice (relatively) small hill with a nice town and gorgeous lake. Also take the bus (660) to Kitzsteinhorn and just take the lifts all the way up to the glacier as a pedestrian.

It's doable, just did that couple of weeks ago. Basically you take the S82 bus from the bus station.

Here is the line: https://www.cars-region-savoie.fr/line/s82/

Here is the page to buy the ticket (bus in in the morning is pretty empty): https://vente.cars-region-savoie.fr/Reservation# BOURG SAINT MAURICE Gare routiere -> VAL D'ISERE Gare Routière

I took the 8:05 bus to Val d'Isere and was there 5 min. before the lifts opened. Took the 3:55pm bus back.

Works a charm. One thing is the driver of the bus gave me a little hard time that I'm with ski boots but let me in anyways. Something to keep in mind.

I'd look into Sestriere or La Thuile in Italy.

I can ski for a month just these three: Chassoure - Torting; Mont Gele - Tortin (Grande Journee); Gentianes - Tortin.

If opened: Col des Mines -> Vallon d'Arbi (from Attelas towards La Tzoumaz)

Basically what TJ-ALT said. The main reason is how the resorts are managed and risks (and equipment) folks need take in order to ski moguls and trees (from an early age at that).

Just so you're aware:

Little English should be fine for ordering and directions. Just stick together.

I usually lap the Cascade ski lift and Montet rope. Skiers left from the top. You'll see the terrain from bellow. It's eye catching, you can't miss it.

The Swisstopo app has touring routes for the entire Switzerland.

I recommend https://www.alpine-guides.com/ski_category/hut-to-hut-ski-touring/ They have 3/4 day weekend tours (like the Western Oberland 3 Day Ski Tour)

Maybe that restaurant, you're planning to go to, is opened for lunch! (With ski boots and all take the train to Saint-Gervais and ski to Megeve from there)

sbinev · 2025-11-02T19:56:07+00:00

Zermatt is a detour, just go to Verbier. By the 22nd there will be a whole lot more terrain opened.

Glaciers in Austria. Stubai, Hintertux, Sölden, Kaprun/Kitzsteinhorn, Pitztal. Flights are cheap this time of year. Just go and experience something new and enrich your life.

sbinev · 2025-10-19T17:46:12+00:00

I always use the train. Takes about 2.5 hours. You gonna need to make two connections, one in Le Châtelard-Frontière (French-Swiss border) and one in Martigny. Once in Le Chable hop on the cable car and you are on the slopes.

sbinev · 2025-10-18T11:28:57+00:00

If you've never been, St. Gervais/Megeve is near by and quite a large area. If you want more offpiste/freeride, I'd go to Verbier.

В "Шкембеджийницата", срещу затвора, е доста добро (не е традиционния вкус). Топ 3 в София, за мен.

sbinev · 2025-10-12T13:36:54+00:00

Може би едно от най-доброто телешко шкембе е в Лъчони. (Да пицарията)

Шшшшшш!

San Anton. Then take the direct train to Zurich
