Where is the best place to ski/snowboard in Europe in the summer snow condition wise?

Question

I want to go snowboarding this summer but I never went before this time of year and don't know where is best to go in Europe, also I want to know what to expect and what is usually snows condition in the summer.

Answer 1

Head South & save some money.  If you go to Bariloche in Argentina, it is amazing.  The 1st day I was there last summer (August), it snowed 54cm.  It was the training ground for the US Ski Team as well as the Canadians & Italians (b/c Europe's glaciers are getting weak).

Answer 2

You will find The Glaciers at Tigne in France at Kaprun in Austria are both good for summer skiing. I have summer skied in both and I found that a lot of the european ski teams are based at these resorts in the summer and both ski areas provide quite good snow conditions.

Also as this winter has provided some excellent snow falls there will be a higher than average snow base this summer again making conditions near perfect.

You will find that the resorts will only open in the Morning, normally 8am - 12 ish as it gets too warm in the afternoons.
