Flaine
Flaine is a fantastic ski holiday destination and is often referred to by the locals as “the big Snowy Bowl” due to its amazing snow record; it is a true hidden gem. Flaine is at 1600m, has 265km of piste, and forms part of the Grand Massif ski area by linking to Samoens, Morillon, Les Carroz, and Sixt-Fer-a-Cheval. Not only does it have fantastic skiing and most of the properties are ski in ski out, Flaine is only about 1hr and 15 minutes from Geneva airport so it is a perfect ski holiday choice for families as it has a very short transfer. We have a wide choice of winter Flaine ski holiday packages to choose from where you can fly from your local regional airport.
Flaine is home to the “Jam Park” which is almost a mile long and is one of France’s biggest snow parks. It makes for a perfect ski trip for any snowboarder. Here there is a half-pipe, kickers, rails and a boardercross. Every Sunday there is a party at Jam Park where there are live DJs and BBQs that is well worth a visit during your skiing holiday.
Flaine is traffic-free and the ski resort is divided into 3 levels. The upper level is Flaine Foret at 1700m and Flaine Forum at 1600m. There is a new development, Hameau de Flaine, which still skis in ski out like the rest of Flaine but built in a more traditional style. All 3 villages offer easy access to one another by an efficient lift system. Flaine Forum is the heart of the resort where most of the restaurants & bars are found.
