Summer in Reberty Village - Three Valleys - Les Menuires - Reberty Village, France
I love the fact that the majority of English people are not keen visitors of the French Alps other than when it is below zero degrees and there is plenty of snow. Well, the Powder has gone, bring on the Shine!
The Alps are not only a winter playground, and surrounded by the most beautiful scenery, the Belleville Valley is one of the best places in the Alps to visit during the summer.
Are you a family looking for an activity holiday somewhere different?
Do you love mountain biking?
Breathe in the pure fresh air whilst taking a walk up the mountain and experiencing breathtaking views?
Care to experience some extreme fun? (Paragliding, kayaking, quad-biking, via ferrata, rock climbing)
Simply want to relax in a beautiful, peaceful environment and soak it all in?...
Then Reberty is the place for you! Reberty Village in Summer is simpy beautiful. It is situated at 2000m about 1 mile away from Les Menuires and not far from Val Thorens. There is an abondance of summer activities available for adults and children and the local tourist office offers a Multiloisirs Card which is the perfect purchase if you are a family looking to do lots of different activities. The card costs 38 Euros per week (Adult) and 27 Euros per week for children aged 3-6 years old.

La Giettaz: A Charming Back-Door to Megève and the Evasion Mont Blanc - Megeve - La Giettaz, France
La Giettaz is a beautiful rustic village that is rightly proud of its traditional mountain lifestyle. Surrounded by fabulous Alpine scenery, visitors here cannot fail to be charmed by the relaxed pace of life and friendly locals: you are staying in a real village, not a resort.
That said, the snow facilities are fantastic: the village has direct access to the Evasion Mont Blanc and its 445km of pistes. Moreover, the Espace Diamant and the Massif des Aravis domains are both only as little as 15 minutes' drive away. Experienced snowheads and newbies alike will love the dramatic scenery: the 360-degree panorama from the top of the local chair lift, taking in Mont Blanc, the Massif des Aravis and south towards Albertville, really has to be seen to be believed. Beginners are well-looked-after by the local ESF office (which offers some of the best-value lessons in the area), and there are creche facilities at the foot of the piste for your kids. And thanks to the slightly off-the-beaten-piste location, even in high season you can expect quiet pistes and very little queuing. How often do you find that in the French Alps?
Après-ski options include a delightful selection of local restaurants and bars in the centre of the village, serving traditional mountain cuisine, again at some of the best-value prices in the area. The glitz and glamour of Megève, or the family-friendly fun of La Clusaz, are both easily reached by car, and a trip to either of these becomes all the more of a treat when you know you are returning to the secluded beauty of La Giettaz!

Wilder Kaiser/Brixental ski area - Kitzbühel - Westendorf, Austria
Comprising the resorts of Going and Ellmau, Scheffau, Soll, Hopfgarten, Brixen, Westendorf and Kelschau.
Going and Ellmau are family friendly resorts and are good for beginners with several short easy runs in the village.
Sheffau village is located 1 km away from the lift and is very quiet. The gondola gives access to some easy blue runs, great for less confident skiers.
Soll is a pretty village with a reputation for good nightlife. This takes place mostly in 2 or 3 overcrowded pubs. It attracts a percentage of heavy drinking male groups. The skiing in the village is good for beginners for the first 2 days. Above the village the skiing consists mostly of red runs and is not really suitable for beginners or less confident skiers.
Hofgarten is a good access point into the ski area and has easy linke to Kelschau, Brixen and Westendorf. It is not suitable for beginners,
Brixen village is spread out and mostly a Dutch enclave. It does offer great access to Westendorf and the main areas in Soll and Scheffau. Again, not good for beginners.
Westendorf is without a doubt the best ski area of this region. It has several runs of varying difficulty back into the village, it is less busy and has the best snow conditions along with Kelschau. It is one of those few ski resorts that has something for everyone. Long blues, blacks and off piste.
Kelschau is a tiny resort which can only be reached by a limited ski and post bus service from Hopfgarten. It has old slow lifts, almost a throwback to the seventies. However, it is worth the trip over as it is uncrowded, it is great for intermediates and the snow conditions are superior.
Hochsoll and Hochbrixen are usually the busiest ski areas.
