France - A skiing nation with plenty of superlatives! The Mont Blanc is the highest mountain in the Alps, Chamonix has the highest cable car in Europe, and Les Trois Vallées claims to be the largest ski area in the world. Ski France!
Savoie: The large ski areas of La Plagne, Val Thorens, Tignes and Valmeinier are located in a semi-circle around the Vanoise Massif in the southern Savoie Alps. Although there are still some gaps between the ski areas, they will one day be joined to become the largest wintersports territory in the world.
Isère: A wintersports region can hardly be more varying. This one reaches from the marginal mountain ranges of the French Pre-Alps to the Écrins Massif, the majestic high mountain scenery of the Dauphiné.
Maritime Alps: The Maritime Alps mean sea and high mountains in one breath. It is the distinctive contrast between deep blue sky and snowy winter landscape that creates the special attractiveness of the most southern wintersports area in the French Alps.
