La Clusaz, Grand Bornand and St Jean
de Sixt are traditional farming villages which have evolved into ski resorts, in
fact La Clusaz is the second oldest resort in France and one of the favourite
skiing holiday destinations for the French. The Aravis is an ideal place for
those who want to get away from the concrete package tour resorts and and surly
waiters and experience a skiing holiday where you are truly welcomed by the
locals.
In the last few years a massive
amount has been invested in the Skiing infrastructure with many new high speed
lifts and a huge network of snow cannon to guarantee good snow cover up until
the end of April. With 220km of piste and with the replacement of the Beauregard
cable car with a high speed gondola the last big bottleneck has been removed and
big queues are very rare even in high season.
Combine this great area, friendly
locals, excellent snow record and our years of experience, we're sure you'll
have a fantastic skiing holiday with excellent accommodation, professional
instruction, top class equipment and no hassle.
Non skiers can also have a great
time with the many other activities which include ice skating, swimming, snow
shoeing, cross country skiing, paragliding and much more.
