Ski Resort Rating: Rate Les Saisies

  Les Saisies is somewhat of a secret that the French have kept, up until recently. There is only 1 hotel in the resort so the tour companies don't use it and as a result it's popular with families using the growing number of apartments.
  Ski snobs will usually decry the lack of absolute height or lack of challenging runs but the resort's proximity to Mont Blanc means that snowfall is as good as many higher resorts, and there are challenging runs to be found all across the Espace Diamant if you care to look.
  We always return with relief to Les Saisies whenever we visit the mainstream ski resorts. The infrastructure is continually being improved so lifts are modern and queues almost unknown. Pistes are groomed well and frequently. A big plus is the way that on the majority of the peaks there is a black, a red and a blue piste leading down to a common lift so a party of mixed abilities can ski together all day.

  Really nice resort for family and beginners, but good skier must give away it's a bit flat.
  I booked this season at the MGM Hameau du Beafortain and my ski équipment by skiset.com with - 30% great deal .

  "Les Saisies", Savoie (France), is a family resort where there is always snow. I love this resort where there are slopes for all levels, and for the whole family.
  I recommend you to try the snowmobile and the tandem flight paragliding with the shop "sport 2000 Les Volatiles", a ski rental shop, very friendly and professional.

  Many think Les Saisies is flat but if you have the Espace Diamant area pass it is a vast resort with great tree lined runs, off-piste, especially over at Praz and unbeatable views. Snow is usually better than nearby and queues unheard of. Huge cross-country domain at Les Saisies as well and lots of walking paths if you want a day off from skiing.

  Les Saisies is a mediun ski resort but with the "Espace Diamant " it's now bigger. Very friendly for family, easy and secure slopes access for kids, where they can go to the ski school. Try to go to Piccard sports they are normally the closest to many appartements and English is spoken in the shops. Many Belgians and Dutch are now in Les Saisies and a little bit of English and Irish.

  I have an appartment in Bisanne 1500 which is just around the mountain from Les Saisies village and I go skiing three times a year. The snow conditions there are amazing especially at January and Febuary. It's a massive resort even without the additional Espace Diamont. The runs at Bisanne 1500 (Les Saisies) are varied from beginner to expert. I am 14 now and I was 11 the first time I went to Les Saisies and my experiences at Bisanne 1500 have made me want to be an instructor when I am older.

  Stayed for two weeks last April. Resort a bit busier than usual as all lower resorts shut as no snow. Still skied until late April.
  Great for beginners and families and very French.
  ESF ski school brilliant with English speaking instructors and my boys, at 13 and 15 years old, sampled both skiing and snowboarding.
  Very safe for 'I know it all' youths as we could not remain with the boys all the time but felt they were safe going off together as all runs finish in village.
  Great accommodation (much cheaper than through travel agents) via Agence de Grand Mont in Village de Lapons and we arrived by TGV to Annecy, taxi to resort.
  Returning with friends in April 2008.

  Went to Les Saisies as a beginner last year and found it great for learning. Probably not so good for experts but definately worth it for those at an intermediate level. The ski instructors were excellent and good amount of snow late in the season.
  The village was lovely and the sceneray was amazing.
