Great place if you want a quiet resort. Plenty of skiing on empty slopes that are well maintained. Montchavin has nice restaurants and a few bars but if you want full on après-ski you need to go to La plagne or Les Arc.

Great resort for families, lots of cruisey blues, lots of choice as it’s such a big area. Plenty of snow for our April trip.
