Winter sets in and the desire to slalom the slopes begins to be felt. After the first snow fell on November 12, comes the question of the opening date of the Alpine ski areas.

Near Nice, several stations will soon open. Dates, prices: news Nice takes stock of the ten stations present in the Alpes-Maritimes.

From the second weekend of December for some

Some Maralpine resorts have already set the opening date for their slopes. You will have to wait until December 7 for Auron, Isola 2000 and Colmiane, and until December 21 for Roubion-les-Buisses.

Of course, everything will depend on the snow conditions. In 2023, the opening of Auron and Isola 2000 was postponed from December 2 to December 9, due to lack of sufficient snow cover.

Uncertain opening for others

However, the suspense remains intact in Gréolières les Neiges. “We do not have a planned opening date at the moment,” the station responded to a user on Facebook.

Same situation in Beuil and Valberg. Contacted by news NiceValberg confirms that the date has yet to be defined.

Before hitting the slopes, perhaps you are already preparing your budget? Please note that the third cheapest station in Europe is located very close to Nice. It is about Roubionwith an average daily price (package and accommodation) at 48 euros. The single adult package is 20 euros.
