Sitting at 1650m, the resort of Les Saisies is the highest in the Espace Diamant region.

Les Saisies offers up snowsure terrain on either side of its valley and a link across to the expansive linked slopes – to the resorts of Notre Dame de Bellecombe and Praz Sur Arly. Most of the local slopes are fairly gentle, making this a good resort for beginners or intermediates looking to improve their skills on snow. A few steeper on piste challenges are available, but more advanced skiers and riders will want to wait for fresh snowfall and head off piste.

The resort is very compact, with a neat centre and lots of ski-in-ski-out accommodation. Generally most lodging is good value and is family-friendly, plus there’s some decent chalets available for rent. Away from the slopes, Les Saisies is one of the best resorts in France for cross country skiing and the resort is home to 120km of perfectly groomed slopes, slopes which hosted the 1992 Albertville Olympic events.

Green Credentials

Ski Club Recognised: Environmentally Sustainable Resort

The Ski Club uses third party independent assessments and accreditation of ski resorts to determine a resort “environmentally sustainable” – more information can be found here.

As part of the French Flocon Vert (tr. Green Snowflake) scheme, Les Saisies has been awarded one snowflake out of a possible three, representing significant investment in resources to reduce its environmental impact. Flocon Vert is an independent scheme operated by Mountain Riders, which accredits resorts in France who have met twenty criteria based on environmental, social and economic sustainability.

Les Saisies is one of the most recently accredited resorts, having been awarded its first snowflake in 2023
The resort is active year-round, providing economic resilience in the face of climate challenges
Alongside this, Les Saisies has developed a diverse and locally-focused economy

Snow Overview

France

Updated 24/12

After a relatively mild spell, dominated by dry weather and high pressure, things turn colder and snowier over the Christmas period – this will be limited to resorts hugging the Italian border, however, as this snow is driven by a “Retour d’Est” system making its way across northern Italy.

A cold front will begin to push into the northern Alps on Christmas day, bringing moderate snow to resorts at higher elevations. Expect snowfall around 800m, with accumulations of 5-10cm across higher ground. Temperatures will dip to -4°C at 2,000m, making for crisp, wintry conditions. This will continue into Boxing Day with a further 15cm expected down.

Conditions will shift again as the weekend begins, with high pressure and fine, dry and bright conditions returning to the Alps. The freezing line will remain cold, hovering around 1,000m throughout.
