Travel Period: January 2020

This is our first time to go to and revel in La Norma. The ski hotel is small, compact and inconspicuous. It has 65 kilometers of smooth to reasonably advanced slopes and a maximum elevation of 2,750 meters.

Our first impressions were quite suitable. It wasn't busy in any respect. The weather turned into ideal. We very a good deal loved taking up the huge terrain almost to ourselves. What a luxury!

As it turned into our 2nd time in this location of the French Alps, inside the Parc de los angeles Vanoise, I did a few further analyzing and found out that our ski pas has some benefits. It honestly has a name to it, the "Eskimo Ski Pas".

La Norma ski village in the valley.

The 6-day Eskimo Ski Pas receives us limitless access to Val Cenis ski hotel in which we stayed, as well as to four different ski lodges within the Parc de los angeles Vanoise, Aussois, Bonneval-sur-Mer, Valfrejus, and La Norma. The seize right here is that we are able to most effective have 1 day each on every ski hotel, that is more than sufficient for us in reality.

But isn't this cool?

Dutchman failed to need to consider this before everything, so he double-checked online to peer it for himself. We even went to the traveller office to get right affirmation, and sure, it's far all actual!

We fast made arrangements on our time table for the week and determined on skiing in La Norma and Aussois as they both have sufficient kilometers of slopes and best half of an hour's power away. Valfrejus was no longer an alternative because it changed into a bit too long for a drive. Bonneval-sur-Mer changed into the smallest of all with most effective 25 kilometers of slopes so we skipped this, rather, I came to visit the vintage village on my own as it's miles widely known in France as part of the list of pretty villages inside the u . S ..

We have been very happy to have visited as we enjoyed our time here.

That's me at the left that simply arrived and prepared to head up once more.

A humorous incident passed off right here in La Norma even though. It all befell after skiing.

The vehicle we drove in this wintry weather sports activities holiday turned into the Audi that is a hybrid e-tron model. It has an digital key powered with the aid of a battery. This specific version has smart key get right of entry to and as long as you've got the e-key on your pocket, bag or hand (within a meter variety), the car lock device mechanically receives deactivated. No need to press open the key, the car doorways are already unlocked whilst you reach out to open it. I absolutely loved this cool functionality. I sort of omit this as I pressure a unique vehicle now.

As we were getting equipped for our journey back to our chalet in Val Cenis, which is about 35 mins, we located out the electronic key didn't work. We realised that the battery turned into useless. Oh. We attempted now not to panic.

We knew that we brought the spare electronic key with us however sadly, we left it inside the chalet. We additionally don't have any idea wherein we should buy batteries in this small town ski lodge. Dutchman and I had only 1 actual option. Read the automobile's guide and find out how to begin the car without a functioning electronic key. One aspect we are able to say, the recovery process did work pretty properly. Thumbs as much as Audi.

We have found out 2 matters here: Always convey a spare key and manuals are there for a motive!

Almost no one at the slopes.

There is an avalanche risk of 3 on a scale of 5.

A organization of children geared up to take the black piste.

I suppose this is the identical group with their ski teacher.

That's me trying to move down a steep and slender slope (as a result the V snowboarding action). Not my nice form I ought to admit.

This is the primary cable car.

Apres-ski is very low key right here but a few do the "Jeu de Boules", a typical French ball recreation.
