Aravis-Annecy Mountains

In the heart of the French Alps and close to Mont Blanc, Le Grand Bornand, La Clusaz & Manigod are perfectly located between Mont Blanc, Lake Annecy and Switzerland, & the local community has carefully worked to combine perfectly the needs for visitors seeking the excellent skiing, whilst maintaining the area's traditional charm and respecting its alpine heritage.

The Aravis Mountains, with their highest peak the distinctive Pointe Percée from where green, forested mountain slopes, curve down towards the valley, forming the main backdrop to Le Grand Bornand village. La Clusaz is a friendly mountain village that has retained its charm. It is one of the most accessible resorts from Geneva and one of the closest to Calais. Manigod is an authentic mountain village, with brilliant beginner pistes and direct links to La Clusaz. 

Featured by Simon Miller in his review of the ski area on City A.M., "Lake Annecy encompasses the better-known villages of Le Grand Bornand and La Clusaz, a beautiful region with some killer – and, crucially, family-friendly – slopes."
