Les Saisies Ski Holiday Resort
Overview
Ideal for families, beginners, and intermediates with its gentle tree lined slopes, Les Saisies offers one of the best views over the Mont Blanc range. It's a paradise for cross country skiers with it's perfectly groomed Olympic tracks. Little known to the UK market this is a great resort with a superb snow record and quick access to Geneva airport. Most of the accommodation is apartment based but these tend to be newer 4 star apartments with access to central lounges, swimming pools, and spa facilities.
The area is now part of the larger Espace Diamant and covers 175 km of piste so where once it was only suitable for beginners and low level intermediates now it has something for most skiers and boarders.
Offslope/apres ski
Apres ski is very quiet and family orientated. There are a number of bars such as Olympe, La Taverne, and le Capon. Dining opportunites are varied with takeaways serving paninis and pizzas.
