Ski resort Le Grand Massif
Ski resort
Le Grand Massif, with 265 km of slopes, is one of the top 10 largest ski areas in France. The slopes are located between 700 and 2500 meters altitude, many of which are above 1500 meters and are therefore guaranteed snow. The slopes are surrounded by beautiful landscapes and pine forests and offer great views of Mont Blanc.
Young, older, beginners or experienced skiers/boarders, they will all get their money's worth in this varied ski area. From wide carving slopes to mogul and off-piste options with a 2.5 km long deep snow route on which you conquer an altitude of 800 meters. The blue piste "Les Cascades" is an absolute highlight for beginners: it runs 14 km down from Flaine to Sixt Fer à Cheval and offers a beautiful view of Mont Blanc. With a bit of luck you may even see ice climbers demonstrating their skills in the icy waterfalls.
