Where are the best family ski resorts in France?
- Best for little ones just starting out - Avoriaz is completely car-free and home to one of the best kids’ ski areas. Flaine is a brilliant budget-friendly pick with free nursery lifts for learners. Montgenevre is one of the sunniest resorts in the Alps, complete with wide, gentle slopes.
- Best for ski-in/ski-out - Les Arcs and La Plagne are linked via the Vanoise Express cable car and have excellent ski-in/ski-out hotels complete with crèche facilities - an absolute godsend when you’re getting your pups in and out of ski kit twice a day!
- Best hidden gems - Le Grand-Bornand charms families with gentle slopes, short lift queues, and a relaxed atmosphere that big-name resorts struggle to match. Les Carroz sits within the vast Grand Massif but with a quieter village feel - think all the terrain, none of the crowds.
- Big skiing, small prices - Want to maximise your mountain time for less? Isola 2000 offers great-value and quick transfer times, while Serre Chevalier delivers a huge linked ski area without the steep price tag.
