Ski resorts in France

France has the most extensive and exciting skiing found anywhere in the world. Huge ski areas such as the Espace Killy, Three Valleys and Portes du Soleil are unrivalled for their vast expanses of skiable area and extreme terrain. With piste networks offering miles upon miles of cruisy blue runs as well as knee-trembling blacks and tough off-piste, France caters extremely well for all levels of skier.

French ski resorts understand the need for activities to cater for the ever-increasing numbers of non-skiers and so provides activities from thrilling paragliding to luxurious spas. As expected, ski holidays in France are also as much about the food and wine as they are about the snow - with resort and mountain restaurants offering a high standard of regional and international cuisine.
