Ease of access
Accessibility is crucial for an optimal experience, especially for short stays.
Smooth connections (clear roads, trains or shuttles) make the destination accessible to everyone. Just like the proximity of major highways and wide, well-plowed roads.
Trail level
The level of the slopes must correspond to the expectations of skiers. A poorly adapted station can frustrate beginners and experts alike. The well-distributed trails allow everyone to progress at their own pace.

Variety of trails
Variety maintains interest over several days: long, technical or forest trails avoid monotony.
A diverse resort satisfies all styles of skiers, whether they are looking for quiet descents, sporting challenges or off-piste.
This is a key criterion for making a stay profitable, even for a few days of skiing.
Nature Experience
Immersion in a preserved natural setting reinforces the feeling of escape.
The majestic landscapes and calm atmosphere of an environmentally friendly resort provide unique satisfaction. For lovers of authenticity and disconnection, this criterion makes all the difference.
Budget
Affordable resorts allow you to balance pleasure and spending without sacrificing the quality of services.
Generally large domains are more expensive than medium sized domains. The more kilometers of slopes you look for to enjoy varied days of skiing that are never the same, the more you will have to put your hand in your wallet! For advanced or expert skiers this is a criterion to take into account, for beginners, a small resort is more than sufficient.
Solo
Traveling alone requires a suitable experience, meeting opportunities, personalized services and a friendly atmosphere.
Adapted resorts allow solo skiers to integrate easily and make the most of it without feeling isolated.
After-ski
Bars, spas or concerts offer essential moments of relaxation to balance effort and pleasure.
A lifeless resort after skiing can quickly become monotonous, even for enthusiasts. Although, a good fondue with friends in the accommodation is not so bad actually!
For athletes
Sporty skiers are looking for challenges and high-performance infrastructure such as technical descents, snow parks and secure off-piste areas.
A big difference in altitude and numerous black slopes are also major assets for a seasoned skier.
With Family
Families are looking for security and ease above all. Adapted infrastructures (daycare, beginner slopes, activities for children) guarantee a stress-free stay, so adults can go skiing, while the little ones also have fun in their own way.
A family resort allows everyone, adults and children alike, to fully enjoy their holidays.
