La Clusaz Village

The village of La Clusaz The traditional centre of La Clusaz, centred around the church and village square, has maintained its character and holds a special atmosphere. There is always something going on, as La Clusaz plays host to many amazing (and some slightly crazy) events throughout the holiday season.

You can ski right down into the village at the end of the day, and when you do, La Clusaz is well served for bars and cafés in which to unwind and relax, with several venues ideal for that ‘cheeky beer’ as you watch the sun set. For the evening there is a wide choice of lively and friendly bars.

The ski resort of La Clusaz is supported by nearby Le Grand Bornand to make up the 220km Aravis ski region, both of which are covered on the area lift pass (included in all our packages).

Of course, we might be biased, so don’t just take our word for it, read what the Financial Times had to say about La Clusaz a few years ago.
