 Poster: A snowHead
|
I'm renting a studio in Bozel for the winter season. Any tips/suggestions from any Bozel residents/regulars?
I'm doing a 10 week ski course, with a start point at 1850 every morning. I will have my car but would prefer to take the ski bus up the hill - apparently there is a bus stop on the edge of Bozel. I'm thinking of getting the bus to Le Praz and then jumping on the gondola up to 1850. Would this be recommended?

Depends if you can make the start time surely? AIUI lots of instructors live in Bozel so it may even be possible to fix up a rideshare.

Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

We visited for the day back in June on our summer holiday.
There's a bar called La Cave which used to be a shop I believe now being run by a really nice English lady that i'd recommend visiting. Her husband runs/works in the butchers so they were doing steak bbq's during the summer, and had lovely charcuterie. I think you'll find there's a number of Brit seasonaires/ex pats that hang around there.

Good shout, that works well... and the gondola is very close to the bus stop

Anyway, snowHeads is much more fun if you do.

Bear in mind that whatever any blurb says, the run up the hill to le Praz will take at least 25 mins: 15 in the car, but longer on the bus. Way longer in the car if you can't pass the bus! But it's a good route- we did 2 weeks in Bozel in January, and drove up daily. There were 4 of us, so 4E a day each was cheap for great parking under the gondola.

You'll need to Register first of course.

All bets are off for this winter though as Alpinium parking is closed from 15 Jan to 25 Feb for the World Champs, and the low season bus timetable from Bozel has made no accommodation for this…
