Hi Matt,

I'm considering doing this trip (solo) because its half-term break for London teachers that week. I haven't snowboarded or had a pair of skis on before so it could be fun?! Its nor booked yet but should get it organised very shortly. Not exactly sure what's expected to bring along (clothes wise) either...

You'll love it, dunno anyone that doesnt get hooked first time they go to the snow.

Just take normal clothes really, stuff to wear round the lodge and goin out clothes etc. You'd probly hire the ski clothes and under them i normally wear just shorts and shirt (sometimes not even that depending on the weather) cos u get pretty warm during the day.

If you know anyone goin to The Church get them to keep there entry tickets cos each ticket gets 10 quid off contiki up to 50 quid. 50 quid aint much but it's more money for the bar I say!

I checked it out and looks like the best bet is to fly into Munich, then there are transfers to the mountain.
