A Star Wars Ski Trip In The French Alps?

Posted By Mike on November 9, 2009


Some people like to vacation in the summer while others prefer a good old fashioned ski trip in the winter. If you fall in the latter category and happen to be a Star Wars fan, then you're in luck. Alpine Elements invites you to travel a bit further for said ski trip in order to combine your love of traveling downhill at high speeds with your love of watching other people travel at high speeds in starfighters, speeders and podracers. Check out the press release below and start packing your bags!


LONDON, November 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Alpine Elements, the world's premiere provider of holiday fun, has issued an invitation to 'Star Wars' fans to vacation in the French Alps. Alpine Elements is renowned for organizing winter and summer fun for countless vacationers. Specializing in high altitude skiing holidays, a 'Star Wars' holiday seems like an unlikely combination. The owner of Alpine Elements, James Hardiman, explains about the 'Star Wars' ski run in Avoriaz.

Alpine Elements, specializing in the organization of resort holidays, recently started an innovative campaign. The targeted audience of the initiative is 'Star Wars' fans worldwide. Alpine Elements believes that 'Star Wars' fans will be interested in visiting Avoriaz in the French Alps. This French mountain resort is home to 'Star Wars' - a ski run which runs from Avoriaz to the tiny hamlet of Ardent.

Owner James Hardiman remarks, "Alpine Elements wants each of our customers to get as much as possible from their holiday. We thought that the 'Star Wars' ski run would add an extra special touch to any fan's winter holiday. If you're a 'Star Wars' lover, could you ever find a better ski run than this one in Avoriaz?"

James Hardiman quickly points out, "Of course, Avoriaz has much more to offer than a single run. Avoriaz was the first resort to offer snowboarding in the 90s. This charming resort is still a popular location for the sport."

Being the most northern resort in France, Avoriaz has an abundance of snow for the entire season. Visitors to Avoriaz can enjoy several high altitude ski slopes. With its varied terrain, Avoriaz is one of the most diverse ski areas in Europe.
