The slopes may only cover 75km, but
there is good variety and excellent vertical to be had from the 2749m summit down to the lowest of the three base villages at 1400m. There are excellent long green runs in the lower, tree-lined part of the mountain, plus a number of long blues and reds. Up high, there is lots of steep, open terrain above the treeline, which after a powder day turns into a large off piste playground. Three long, fast chairs serve much of the terrain, but the summit is only accessible by a slow 4-seater.
There are two options in terms of accommodation. You can either stay at the foot of the slopes at Station 1400, which is home to some well-located apartment blocks and some decent value chalets. Further up the hill, there is Station 1600, which offers further slopeside accommodation. Both resorts are generally quiet at night, but offer up a decent selection of bars and restaurants. Both Lyon and Nice airports are around 4 hours away by car, with Grenoble a little closer at 3 hours away.

Snow Overview
France
Updated 03/01
Totals expected for this weekend across France have been reduced, but in place we should now see steady snowfall throughout this weekend and the start of the new week instead, albeit across higher elevations only.
A series of low pressure systems come barrelling in off the Atlantic, bringing unsettled conditions and cold weather to much of the continent and British Isles. The first of these skirts over the top of the Alps over the weekend, before two more move in at the start of next week. Temperatures will start the weekend bitterly cold, with -15°C at 2,000m possible and probable. Around 10cm is expected over this weekend, falling mostly at higher elevations as the freezing line climbs quickly from sea level to around 2,000m.
The second system will move in on Monday afternoon, brining much the same result; 25cm overnight Monday to Tuesday, mostly limited to higher elevations although the tail end of this will reach lower as the freezing line momentarily drops back to 1,000m. Temperatures will remain around freezing at 2,000m for this period.
Finally, the third system comes in on Wednesday and, currently, is expected to bring up to half a metre in places. Again, this will mostly fall across higher elevation as the freezing line remains around 2,000m. Unsettled conditions will continue later into the week.
