Avoriaz – First-Class Skiing

The French ski resort of Avoriaz is located between Mont Blanc and Lake Geneva

The length of ski slopes at Avoriaz is more than 650 kilometers. This is the largest ski area in the world. A special feature and main advantage of the Avoriaz resort is the complete absence of motor vehicles. Guests leave their cars at a paid parking lot at the entrance to the town, which is one of the ways to care for the resort's ecology.

The streets of the town are trails along which people return to their homes after skiing. You can simply ride into a shop and then ski further down to your apartment. The entire infrastructure of the resort is worked out and thought out to the smallest detail, which even eliminates crowding in the elevators. The floors of the buildings are open galleries with beautiful views of the surrounding nature. Only here can you see the most beautiful sunset in the world every day.

Ski enthusiasts from all over the world come to Avoriaz, facilitated by natural conditions that guarantee an abundance of snow throughout the ski season. On average, the snow cover here is 8 meters. It is in Avoriaz that most world championships in alpine skiing are held.

Experienced travelers prefer to purchase tours to this wonderful place through the French network of premium resorts Club Med. Thanks to this choice, the cost of the tour, in addition to accommodation at the most eco-friendly Alpine resort, also includes free ski passes for the entire region, lessons with experienced instructors from the French National Ski School (ESF), as well as various show programs and discos in the evenings. Young ski enthusiasts will be gladly welcomed by children's clubs and experienced ESF instructors.

Needless to say, guests of the Club Med ski resorts can expect top-class service and excellent hospitality on their vacation. After the snowy slopes, they can enjoy relaxation in spas, pools, numerous saunas and hammams. And sports enthusiasts will find modern exercise machines and fitness centers with specially designed programs.

Avoriaz is not just a town, but a world-class resort that first opened the Burton Stash park. The developed infrastructure of the town includes financial institutions where you can withdraw money from accounts of all banks in the world. The town also has ATMs with Euro/Mastercard/Visa payment systems. The central post office is located in the very center of the town, making sending and receiving mail quite convenient.
