Expert's Opinion

For me, this is the best resort in the Alps. Maybe I’m biased as I grew up skiing in La Clusaz, but no resort has this combination of varied skiing, good snow reliability and proximity to Geneva. Better still, it's all wrapped up in one of the most beautiful and charming villages in the Alps, and they invented Reblochon cheese too - what more can I say?

The Village

Located in the heart of the Aravis Mountains in the Haute-Savoie and just an hours drive from Geneva, La Clusaz is one of the most overlooked resorts in the alps. A genuine mountain village that exudes rustic and gallic charm, La Clusaz has a life beyond the snow and is a thriving community 12 months of the year.

The resort is a perfect place to find traditional French mountain cuisine, with many restaurants and bakeries serving delicious local products including croissants, charcuteries, fondues and more.

Surrounding La Clusaz are a number of smaller, and arguably even more traditional villages including Chinaillon and, in partiuclar, Le Grand-Bornand. The birthplace of the famous farmhouse Reblochon cheese is definitely worth a visit, especially to try the delicious dish it later created, Tartiflette.

The Skiing

La Clusaz offers some quality, well-groomed slopes for intermediate and advanced skiers. These are often overlooked by skiers in favour of the Trois Vallées and other famous resorts of the Tarentaise.

La Clusaz and smaller resort of Manigod share 132km of slopes; while 10 minutes away by free shuttle bus are those of Le Grand Bornand and its lift-linked satellite village, St Jean de Sixt. All four are covered by the same Aravis lift pass and bring the total terrain up to 220km.

The local slopes sprawl over five attractively wooded and varied sectors. There is plenty of snow making and, because of a microclimate caused by its proximity to the Mont Blanc massif, snow cover is reliable. Over 9 metres has been recorded at village level.
