A day on the slopes
On a ski holiday in France, you will find that the resorts are serious about their winter sports; virtually every area along the Alpes is highly rated by the experienced skier. The beginner and the intermediate are not forgotten at the all-rounder villages of Montgenevre and La Rosiere. The many purpose built resorts maximise the skiing and snowboarding time, but that doesn't mean they don't know how to enjoy themselves after a day on the slopes, après ski in France is lively and varied.
Endless attractions
