Skied at Passy Plaine Joux several times in January 2024. Lovely family friendly and chilled resort. No chairlift (although did look like one was being built). All runs are accessed by fast drag lifts. Skied here twice mid week and had the runs to ourselves. The pistes were well groomed and long runs for the size of resort. Views of the Mont Blanc valley were amazing. Very reasonable lift pass prices. Helpful and friendly lift staff. One mountain eatery and several at the base, all good. Plenty of free parking. Skied once at the weekend and it was much busier at the base but still the slopes were uncrowded. 30 minute drive up from Sallanches or Passy. When the snow's good its great for a day or two and perfect if learning to ski or for the intermediate skier who likes quiet. Very popular with tourers.
