Christmas Snow Record
Nearly all our resorts have a snow range above 1500m (around 5,000ft). Altitude is, however, not the only important factor.
Microclimate
Some areas like the Grand Massif or Mont-Blanc Val d’Arly benefit from a microclimate because of their close proximity to Europe’s highest peak, Mont-Blanc. These areas have a much more reliable snow record than other resorts at the same altitude or even some higher-up.
North-Facing Slopes
Other important factors for good snow are North-facing slopes, as whatever cover they get will simply last longer. What lies below the snow cover is also of importance: a few centimetres will be enough to ski on pasture whereas more will be required to cover a rocky surface.
Snow Cannons
Finally, resorts that have snow cannons to cover the lower slopes (generally the nursery slopes) offer a good guarantee. These will normally run at night from early December to top up on natural snow cover.
Above all, check the hard facts as in the end the snow history over a period of time is the only reliable indicator. Over the past 8 years, skiing was available in all our featured resorts. Please see individual resort pages for historical snow records.
