'Most dangerous' ski resorts in Europe

February 18, 2008

Travel insurer Complete Ski has produced a list of top fracture resorts for skiers based on insurance claims made since 2000. France accounts for 53% of all claims followed by Austria and Italy.

Only French resorts make the top 10 . . .

  • Les Arcs (41 fractures)
  • Les Dues Alpes (40 fractures)
  • Val D’Isere (35 fractures)
  • Val Torrens (33 fractures)
  • Serre Chevalier (32 fractures)
  • Morzine (30 fractures)
  • La Plagne (29 fractures)
  • Courchevel (25 fractures)
  • Meribel (25 fractures)
  • Alpe D’Huez (24 fractures)

And here is a map of the top 20 fracture resorts.

For once I'm very glad that Meribel isn't at the top of the list!
Great Google Maps Mashup...

Martin Couzins:

I guess it's not the most appealing type of top 10 for resorts. And to be honest, what is it saying - bad skiers go here? ;-)
