For some skiers, it\u2019s all about being up early for first lifts and getting fresh tracks on the pristine corduroy; the resort is simply a convenient dormitory. For others, apr\u00e8s is just as important as the snow and these people will be looking out for legendary drinking establishments such as La Folie Douce, Cocoricos and the Krazy Kanguruh. Others look out for ski-in\/ski-out properties, non-skiing activities for the kids and the availability of tables at the local must-visit Michelin star restaurant.<\/p>\n<p>For some, the long love affair with the most famous resorts has evolved into an exploration of less-explored, traditional villages in more recent years. The cost of accommodation, the price of lunch on the mountain and the occasional crankiness of the locals (overwhelmed by the seasonal invasion of tourists) at the most well-known resorts, are all good reasons to look more off the beaten ski run.<\/p>\n<p>Skiers \u2018in the know\u2019 often return year after year to small, traditional village resorts that you may have never even heard of!
