Hi!
I was sorry I missed last years EC session, but this year I hope I'll manage it. A group of carvers from Slovenia is planning our trip to Zinal at the time of EC session. But as it's a bit far, we'll come for one week, from 22.01. till 29.01 and hoping to prolong it on the spot til 30th.

However, I was wandering if it's possible to get discounted a week's pass as well since I don't think it's worth buying 3 days discounted and 3 days regular ticket as 6/7 day regular ticket might be cheaper. Could you help me out with the prices?
We're planning to stay in Grimentz and as I've heard the ticket is valid for Zinal, Grimentz and two other resorts. Is that correct? Are these resorts good for EC?
Thanx,
Jakob

well all we can do is making sure people have the 3 day reduced price which should be in the 21 euros range ( from last years prices)... As for the rest of the week, we'll have to check it with the resort, but its going to be difficult since everyone is having different dates and days...

The skilift/cabin people were not very cooperative last year, except for the three days (very cheap). Even half day tickets were very complicated to buy with deposits and refunding etc. They even had not heard of the session, so if it is possible to inform the personnel in the lift company that we are there and some of us also even before or aften the session may be it would help.

Zinal makes a big reduction for the 3 days of the ECS
only in their own resort! We can't get any reduction for the skipass valid in the entire valley ("Val d'Anniviers").
Grimentz is the only other good resort for EC

Of course, it's perfectly understandable. We'll probably take 4day ticket for all 4 resorts and discounted 3 day tickets for Zinal, we're gonna be there those 3 days anyway

My quick calculation showed that it's still cheaper than 6/7 day ticket for all resorts...
Thanx
