In Italy probably more than any other ski country,
it is most likely that you will be able to combine your ski holiday with
a real feel for what a country is like. For here in some of her high
mountain villages, a number of which are at least semi isolated during
the winter months, the old way of Italian life and its trappings cling
furiously to the past. Change does not come easily. Possibly nowhere in
the Italian.
Alps is this
phenomena more aptly illustrated than in La
Thuile. Almost closed in winter from the
outside world the efficient lift pass system
which links the resort with France's La
Rossiere-a system which allows man to go on
skis where he could never go in winter with
an automobile.
In fact La
Thuile is very well connected by road with the
rest of Italy via the new superhighway from
Aosta and the Mont Blanc tunnel linking Italy
to France.
At an altitude of 1,500m. La Thuile is placed on the
Little St. Bernard Pass which joins Italy and France
during the summer months. The French resort of La Rosiere
makes up the second half of this mini European Union, and
it is a cooperation which brings real and visible
benefits. At least to skiers. Oh my. If only running the
real EU was so successful.
