Forecast today: Generally clear
For beginners there is an area at the top of the Pre des Preys gondola. There are some great pistes for progression such as the Salamandre which is a long, gentle, windy run. Intermediates can access the runs most suited to them by heading high up the mountain – the runs from the TSD Crêtes chairlift, the Jaux 1 draglift and the Ourson draglift in particular are excellent. Advanced skiers, while not quite as well served as beginners and intermediates, have plenty to keep them occupied. Le Grand Couloir is a good challenge and extensive off piste can be found in the Petite Moucherolle area.
The resort has a wide range of accommodation to suit all budgets. There are luxury hotels should your budget stretch far enough or there are more affordable chalets, hotels and apartments. There is also plenty to do in the resort, including a lively après scene. Grenoble airport is just an hour’s drive from the resort and Chambéry and Lyon airports are good alternatives.<

Snow returns to the Alps again from Tuesday afternoon, as up to 30cm falls overnight Tuesday and throughout Wednesday in the Southern and Eastern French Alps. This is aided by a freezing line topping out at 2,000m, falling off to 1,500m overnight, allowing this snow to reach all elevations. Resorts in the far northwest of the region, closest to Geneva, will miss out on this snow as it tracks in from the East, over the Italian Alps.
After a cold Wednesday evening, high pressure and spring conditions return, with a serious swing between overnight lows and midday highs. The freezing line will settled at 1,000m overnight, before climbing to over 2,500m in the midday sun. This amplitude will close as the weekend approaches, with the overnight freezing line tucking in just below 2,000m.
These fine, dry and bright conditions will continue well into the weekend and beyond.
