Just 45kms from Geneva and less from the airport, Les Rousses is an often overlooked ski resort in the Jura Massif, overlapping the France/Switzerland border and offering a cheap alternative to the Alpine resorts. It is well worth considering if the snow is suitable, especially if you enjoy ski-touring. The ski area covers 5 distinct massifs including the highest point in the ski area at Le Massif de la Dole (1680m). The north-facing aspect tends to result in better snow than the low altitude would suggest and the northerly location means that the Jura sometimes receives heavier falls than the nearby Alps.

Resorts close to Les Rousses include: St-Cergue - La Dôle (5 km), La Dôle (6 km), Bellefontaine (7 km), Lamoura (12 km), Mijoux-LaFaucille-Lelex (14 km),
