Our resorts – Key statistics

 

This is the list of our winter ski resorts. They have all been chosen for their good snow records and fair altitude. Other factors such as north facing slopes or the proximity of Mont-Blanc mean higher snow levels throughout the season.  With modern snow making facilities all our resorts are suitable for skiing until the last week of April. Ski areas with 50km of piste are usually more than sufficient for a week of intermediate skiing. As experts skiers we find that areas of 100km plus of piste are again more than enough for a week of fun.
