Le grand bornand is a lovely quieter resort, with plenty of slopes to keep you entertained. I haven't attempted the black runs as not up to that standard but appeared to be plenty of black and off piste areas to discover.There are a few places to eat in the town but you are limited for apres ski.If you aren't after a wild time then look no further than le grand bornand! It's so pretty and peaceful.

I've been to Le Grand Bornand since learning how to ski and I cannot get over how much I love being there - I look forward to it all year round!!Their green and blue slopes are amazing for beginners and I even managed a nice red called La Tollard on my third day of riding - everyone is friendly with beginners and the hot drinks with a view at the end makes it even more worth the day :)

Beautiful area, very quiet and well looked after with a variety of terrains to ride. Village is very welcoming and access all over the mountain is very quick and efficient. Will be coming again next year

For my first time visiting, I had the best weekend! Great slopes and a great place to ski. I would recommend to anyone to check Le Grand-Bornand out!
The slopes were perfect for myself (someone who has only skied a few times) lots of different tracks with beautiful views and it was super easy to get around the resort. There was also lots of different off piste options for my boyfriend who is a much better skier. There was also lots of opportunities for us to ski together even though we are at different abilities.
I could not recommend this enough!

Lovely resort which is compact and family friendly. Chinnailon rPlenty of options for beginner and intermediate skiers, though less so for the experienced. But lots of off piste available. Ski area
Looks deceptively small, theres More to it. Mostly French clientele, very welcoming to everyone though!!

Great small resort that's easy to navigate around the central mountain. Slopes are usually quiet and there's a great board park to play in too.

This resort while not particularly high has everything the beginner up to advanced intermediate could want. Its not particularly well known by the English but French skiers come here which says a lot. The pistes are well looked after and are pretty quiet outside the usual holiday weeks. The lift pass is reasonably priced and you can also Ski La Clusaz which is only 10 minutes away by free ski bus on the same pass if you want. Eating out is pretty decent and reasonably priced for a French ski resort. Nightlife is centered around bars . Because this is a traditional village, there is a charm to the place and there is enough for the non skier to do. For those that dont like lengthy airport to resort transfers, Le Grand Bornand comes into its own in that it is only an hour away from Geneva airport. This resort is well worth considering as an easy to access resort with good value extensive skiing
