Update to January Green-hike 1: another way to the slopes

We've just found an even better way...

The overnight train from Paris to Munich departs at 2245, meaning you could do a full day's work in London before you head off. You can get a return sleeper booth on that train for as little as £56, bit cheaper than a night in a hotel and the cost of a flight!

Once you get there, Munich puts you in a great place for skiing Austria. According to the extremely useful ifyouski.com, no fewer than 12 of Austria's best resorts (from St Anton to Mayrhofen) are within a 3 hour onward journey. And remember, Austria's resorts are generally much more natural than those of France, which are predominantly purpose built.

Get your skis on...
