Hi there,

I’ll be doing a bit of travelling around Europe in a few months and hope to take in a bit of skiing along the way. What countries do you think provide the best skiing and about when does the skiing season start. I’ll be travelling mid-October. Is this too early for skiing? I plan to take in Italy on my trip but hope to visit both Austria and France too. Has anyone an opinion on the best ski resorts, I’m a novice skier. I’d like to ski at least once on my trip. I’ll be travelling for about 4 weeks which will take me into mid-November.
