La Clusaz is a very French resort (part of the Les Aravis ski area) removed from the hustle and bustle of other resorts in the Alps. Five mountain slopes at La Clusaz offer 130 km of piste that descend from open glades into tree lined pistes. Beginners will revel in the variety, with over 60% of the pistes at La Clusaz dedicated to them. More advanced skiers would be recommended to explore the off-piste opportunities along the many Cols of the Aravis range. Off the slopes, La Clusaz offers rustic charm in an unspoiled French mountain town. A good selection of restaurants cater for the weekend skiers, from nearby Annecy, and prices reflect this. Not a lot of hot nightlife but then that is not always bad.

Visitor Reviews of La Clusaz
Darcy from France writes:
I have been skiing in La Clusaz since 1990. My children started skiing there as well at the age of 9 yrs and 7 yrs. I fell in love with La Clusaz from that date and have been skiing there religiously 3-4 times a year travelling from the UK (by car or plane). I have always found La Clusaz friendly and the most beautiful Alpine resort with character (no concrete blocks). Restaurants are plentiful (on the slopes and in the resort centre. I have been promoting La Clusaz to my friends and family and my children's friends. Plenty of varied skiing (for the novice, children, adults, and for any serious skiers). Slopes (pistes) are very well maintained daily. Just look at the slopes during school holidays and you hear lots of English. I will not hesitate to recommend La Clusaz to anyone. Just come once, you fall in love with it instantly.
