    The Nevele wasn't accurately depicted. It was located outside of the Catskills proper and was small unlike the year round hotel that was the main attraction as I worked there. Great lost ski area like Highmount and Scotch Valley would have represented the Catskills better. A book called Skiing in the Catskill region by George V Quinn has all the lost areas of the Catskills.

    • @Leo_Elisabeth_Alexander
      @Leo_Elisabeth_Alexander 23 дні тому

      I would recommend going to Austria or Germany. These prices are outdated. There are many places in Germany and Austria that can be in-expensive. I would look for a city with a lot of pistes according to your- and your son's ski level. There are small or big ski areas, the smaller ones are often cheaper and less crowded (if you go outside of the lesson season, which is mostly in February). And it's good to look for estimated snowfall to make sure that there will be enough snow where you're going. Have you skied before? Do you know what ski level you and your son are? Are you planning to do lessons or go without them? Those are important things to factor in. Lessons make it more expensive, but it's helpful to learn from someone experienced. And if you go grocery shopping and make your own food that's less expensive, but if you do that make sure you have a kitchen in your accommodation. If you have questions you can ask them, I've been skiing for 14 years (with 2 two year breaks in between). Mostly my parents have booked the trips, but I do know how it works and what to pay attention to even though I don't always know the exact pricing.

He has had some at an indoor slope here in the U.K. and I’ve got experience of Andorra, Spain Sierra Nevada over the years. First time not going as a group and looking for self catering with green to red routes. I’m looking to book flights and hotel separately instead of a package holiday

    • @Leo_Elisabeth_Alexander
      @Leo_Elisabeth_Alexander 21 день тому

      @ I recommend you look into beginner ski resorts in Austria and Germany. Most ski area's don't have green routes, so you have to look for those specifically. (Most area's do have a kids place, which is a small part of a piste where beginners can practice, but it's usually small and crowded with kids.) You can then look up the ski maps of those cities and find a few that you both feel good about. Then look for places to stay at in those areas. And once you've found the place you want to stay at in the city you want to stay at you can book the flights and train/bus trip. Usually you can't go directly from the airport to an accommodation, unless you book a taxi or rent a car. But renting a car is not recommended. You can always get around by bus or by walking, and a car is just not practical. You can look up bus routes or walking routes to the pistes from your accommodation beforehand, but you don't have to. There are always buses close by and they usually go every hour or more often. December is pretty fast, but there's not a lot of people who go during that time so you still have a chance of being able to book a hotel. But I would recommend trying to book fast. I hope this all helps.
