Location nearest to Luxembourg for carving?

I'm wondering what resort is nearest to Luxembourg? How many km's away? Is there enough snow?

there are good resorts ( not steep) in alsace.... check in google alsace + ski...
they're better than nothing

otherwise you're 5 hours from the alps so should be able to go to chamonix instead if u look for steep

or if you're really really lucky there might be one of these tiny resorts in the neighbouring belgian ardennes that would be open...but don't count on it, as they tend to open a few days once every 5 years.

You may find that the Swiss Alps are closer than the french Alps via
Basel.. There was recently a thread on this subject on the
rec.skiing.resorts.europe newsgroup.

As to which Swiss mountains are best for carving. I live in Zurich and I
haven't found a really good place for carving yet.
