Ski Resort Guide: Samoens

Samoens: Intro

A beautiful village in France’s Giffre valley, Samoëns lies at the foot of the Criou mountain, and is one of the more challenging of the five Grand Massif mountain range resorts, with stunning views and virtually no queues.

Samoëns has grown and expanded recently but still retains plenty of old-school French charm. Known chiefly for its stonemasons, this listed village boasts medieval fountains, rustic old buildings and an ancient church.
