There’s so much uncertainty around skiing in 2020/21 – due to Covid-19 and travel challenges.
If you are able to make it – then here are our 10 Top-Tips for Skiing in France this coming winter ski season.
In the summer there’s often lots of work going on, with many ski resorts working hard to improve the ski experience.
That’s definitely the case for Winter Ski Season 2019/2020, so here’s an update of the new developments…
With this being our own home base, we have much more flexibility as to what we can offer our guests.
We think this is a fantastic advantage for our guests who stay at the Aravis Lodge, which keeps them coming back…
We saw plenty of work & action in Le Grand Bornand throughout the latter half of 2017, preparing for Winter 2017 – 18 season.
This has resulted in some great improvements to the ski slopes & beginner’s area around the resort…
The main development in La Clusaz for winter 2018 – 19 was the new fast 6-person chair lift for Cret du Merle.
This will significantly improve the capacity & speed of uplift from the village centre, alongside the new lift station.
The name has changed & the Aravis Mountains now becomes incorporated into the wider Annecy Mountains brand.
This is a recognition of the strong links our home resorts of La Clusaz & Le Grand Bornand have with the town of Annecy.
You already use SkyScanner to find the cheapest flights to Geneva for your short ski breaks – a real hub for short ski breaks.
However, did you know you might be missing a trick when it comes to finding the cheapest flights for your skiing holiday?
Our base for short ski breaks is the Aravis Lodge in St Jean De Sixt, 5 minutes from La Clusaz & Grand Bornand.
We also offer skiing holidays in Les Contamines, St Gervais & Samoëns, all under 90 minutes from Geneva airport.
We used to be able to offer ‘ski hosting’, to show you the best slopes, restaurants, views etc.
Due to rigorously enforced legislation in France, we can no longer offer this, so are introducing our new Snow Rep Service instead.
An unforgettable chance to ski or snowboard until 1am with just the light of the full moon to guide your way!
You can stop at mountain bars on the way to enjoy live music, vin chaud and soak up the fantastic atmosphere…
Ever since we started running short ski breaks & ski weekends, we have included your lift pass in the package as standard.
That’s in addition to your airport transfers & delicious catering in your accommodation being included too…
Tired of friends & family going on ski holidays & you being left behind because skiing isn’t really your thing?
