A lovely ski resort on the quiet side, brilliant for families. friendly ski instructors for beginners, and plenty of slopes for skiers of all different levels. Ski and snowboard rental right next to the ski lift. The fun park used to be a lot bigger than it is now - its not great if thats what youre looking for. Après Ski isnt huge but there are several cosy huts to choose from, all offering great food options too.
