As you would expect from a world class resort you will find excellent skiing for all abilities. What makes this ideal for our groups is that the beginners slopes are in close proximity to our apartments and the progression for the intermediates is superb via the network of greens, blues and reds that crisscross the mountain. With the Pic Blanc lift at 3330m it really is high altitude skiing at its best with breathtaking panoramas and something for everyone.
This resort had more snow at Easter than during the rest of the season & closed with a staggering 260cms on the upper slopes! What better reason to try this outside of February half term.
