There are of course exceptions to this – our favourite resorts of Megeve and Morzine being great examples of the more attractive traditional alpine style villages, that also benefit from much shorter transfer times.
There is a varied range of traditional French villages such as Chamonix, Megeve, Morzine and La Clusaz that make great options for ski weekends and mean there is a destination to suit all types of skier. The more flexible hotel accommodation and proximity to the airport make these ideal for a short break.
Vast linked ski domaines such as Les Trois Vallees and Espace Killy make great destinations for longer trips, with enough kilometerage to satisfy any skier for a week. Their high altitude means they are snow sure but can mean a longer trip from the airport. Purpose built ski-in ski-out convenience and great English speaking ski schools also make many of these resorts ideal for families.
