Skiing in Combloux at last..

We head been wanting to ski at Combloux since our first visit to the resort before the season started in November. This is a quiet resort, with more locals than tourists, and well worth a visit. There are 100km of pistes, with some great wide, long (and empty) red runs. Great for beginners and intermediates but those looking for powder should look elsewhere. Nevertheless, it is only 4km from Megève and forms part of the "Evasion Mont-Blanc" area with Saint-Gervais, Cote 2000, Les Contamines, and La Giettaz with a total of 445 km of skiable pistes.

.. and there are great views of Mont Blanc from the restaurant at lunch


Hopefully we'll get a chance to ski in Combloux again before the end of the season but if not we'll definitely try to do some mountain biking in the summer - and it is probably even closer to home than Les Gets with a 45-50 minutes drive. A key tip.. if skiing on a Saturday leave early and aim to drive through Sallanches before 0830-0900 as it is market day (the same is true for Megève) - and if you are there for a week do not plan to leave after breakfast on Saturday!
