ESNOW!

Bored of studying? Want to go on a holiday with friends from back home but realized their in different ESN sections? Don't worry! We're here to help! ESN the Netherlands organizes ESnow for the second year now! Together with 400 students from other ESN sections we will hit the alps and 'll be boardin' or skiin' down the slopes while ending each day with a traditional apres-ski party!

So when is it?

From the 9th until the 18th of March!

Okay sounds interesting but it's bound to be really expensive then..

Not even! The total package will cost you 340 euros and there is even rumours going around about an early bird discount.

Okay in that case you will probably have still pay for taxes and accomodation right?

Nope! I'll show you what's included: A 7.5 day lift pass (means you can start skiing/snowboarding as soon as we arrive), accomodation (Residence les Melezes), bus transportation (by Royal Class Bus), bagage depot on the first and last day, tourist taxes, bedsheets, breakfast on day of arrival, an Alps diner, 5 free shooters, beer price of 2 euro instead of 3, mixed drinks for 4,50, shooter at day of arrival, ESN themed parties, ESNOW gadgets. The only two things not included yet are skiing equipment and yourself!

Wow! That actually sounds really good where is it anyway?

The French ski resort of Risoul is part of the La Forêt Blanche Ski Area with access to 108 individual pistes. In addition to the skiing in Risoul itself (180km of pisted ski runs), you are able to ski or snowboard in the other La Forêt Blanche ski resort of Vars. Risoul is directly linked by ski lift to the ski areas of Vars

The ski resort itself is above 1500m, so skiing or boarding back to the resort is usually possible. With pistes above 2500 metres, skiing and snowboarding is assured throughout the season.
