Visitor Reviews of Samoens

Having just returned from a one week break in Samoens, I felt compelled to submit a review whilst my experience was still fresh. This is, beyond doubt, the most picturesque ski base that I have ever encountered and it accesses some fabulous terrain, albeit somewhat slowly via some antiquated links (particularly into Flaine). The town is jaw droppingly pretty with a real sense of history and understated charm. Samoens may not have the rugged splendour of Chamonix but the scenery will not disappoint.
The local ski runs at Samoens 1600 are sufficient for beginners and early intermediates although there seemed to be a higher proportion of button tows than I have seen in other resorts. Beyond 1600 there is great tree lined skiing at Morillon and Les Carroz. A particular favourite with the kids was the Marvel run in Morillon - labelled green but more like an easy blue - with lots of bumps and jumps off the sides and through the trees.
Blue sky days should be spent in Flaine bowl where you will find great cruising off the Grands Platieres and fabulous views of Mont Blanc; particularly liked cruising Cristal and the bumps and gullies off the sides of Faust.
All in all, Samoens is a great destination for a family with young kids, particularly if they are competent enough to manage all blues and easier reds as this really opens up the whole area. Just be prepared for slow links and bottle necks when trying to get to and from Flaine.
