Winter - White season
Nature finally slumbers
deep beneath a thick white blanket, the snow clad peaks tower sharp against the deep blue sky, below the slopes are alive with figures in brightly coloured clothing weaving their way down the slopes on skis and snowboards. Down in the village this is the time when families and friends love to gather in cosy surroundings.
A
sweet nostalgic atmosphere envelops the place, and although the
ski slopes come to life with excited
winter sports enthusiasts they are never crowded. Others who prefer
solitude amid unspoilt nature step into
snowshoe bindings and take off in any direction through the snow-mantled forests and across the gleaming Alpine pastures.
