The local slopes above Les Carroz are pretty and tree-lined,
making them excellent for a snowstorm when the slopes above Flaine are likely to be socked in with cloud. Two lifts get you to the heart of the 265km of slopes in the Grand Massif at the Tete des Saix, from which point there is great skiing northwards to Morillon and Samoens, southwards to Flaine or westwards back down towards Les Carroz. The ski area tends to suit intermediates, but is also renowned as a great training ground for improving off piste skiing skills – the snowfall here is abundant and the terrain offers great progression from gentle bowls to steeper faces and tree runs.
The village itself is pretty, with lots of wood and stone buildings built in a traditional Savoyard style. It is a little spread out however, and its location on a slope means that if you’re down in the lower part of the village it is a bit of a walk up in the morning to the main gondola. Restaurants are abundant, with several lively bars to choose from too – spring here is particularly good as the southwest facing village is basked in sunshine until late in the afternoon. Les Carroz is a great weekend option, with the transfer from Geneva taking around an hour.

A promising week is in store for the French Alps, as the freezing line prepares to take a long walk off a short pier and plummet to finish off the week, as unsettled weather moves in at the same time. Snowfall already falling over the Alps will therefore being to reach lower slopes over the course of Thursday.
Friday will dawn cold as the freezing line hits 500m, and whilst it will recover over the course of the day it won’t climb too far above 1,500m. Snow will begin with flurries throughout the afternoon, then will continue for much of this forecast period. Around half-a-foot will fall over each of Saturday, Sunday and Monday, before the taps open on Tuesday and around 2ft of snowfall could be expected across higher ground – the freezing line will climb to 2,000m thereby limiting this snowfall across lower slopes, before falling again as Tuesday draws to a close.
This snow will fall on a persistent weak layer avalanche problem that has already caused havoc across the French Alps in previous weeks; expect the avalanche risk to climb considerably over this period. Check your local avalanche forecast and plan off piste and backcountry travel carefully.
