Winter Sports France Le Grand Massif

Winter sports Le Grand Massif: The Ultimate Guide

Le Grand Massif is bursting with green and blue slopes. And most of the red slopes are also easy to do. An ideal ski area for beginners! With just a little winter sports experience you can already make great trips. The area is aimed at families and is therefore very child friendly. For advanced skiers there are several red and black slopes. However, there are not many challenging slopes in the area. However, the off-piste and freeride possibilities are excellent.
Other advantages of the area are the great snow security, the good accessibility by car and plane, the good food and the good prices. The area is not known for its après-ski. Only Flaine is a very cozy village.
