A gondola, telemix and two fast 6-seater chairs serve a varied ski area directly above the resort village of Pra Loup.

These are nicely tree-lined, so are excellent in bad weather, and snowmaking investment has really improved snow reliability in recent years. From the summit of Le Lac, there are long runs down to Les Angneliers, opening up the rest of the Espace Lumiere and the runs over towards the linked resort of Foux_d’Allos. Just be aware that most of the lifts required to get you over there are slow, so on a cold windy day make sure you wrap up warm.

The village itself is well located right at the foot of the slopes, with all accommodation, bars and restaurants forming a horseshoe shape in the trees by the lift stations. This means you’re rarely more than a minute or two from the lifts in the morning, making Pra Loup a very family-friendly option. There is also the satellite village of Les Molanes, which offers up some further options, plus lift access via a gondola to the slopes. Getting here does take a while however, with transfers from either Nice or Lyon taking around 4 hours.

Snow Overview

France

Updated 10/03

Warm conditions continue to dominate across the French Alps over the course of this week, as the freezing line remains up around 2,000m. Cloud will bring with it a few flurries of snowfall over upper elevations above this limit, with a crescendo of around 5cm falling on Wednesday night into Thursday morning.

Unsettled weather than moved in as the weekend begins, causing the freezing line to drop and good snowfall to come to many slopes on Saturday afternoon. The freezing point will drop to below 1,000m overnight Saturday night and Sunday night, before rising to around 2,000m in the midday sun (such as it is with a layer of cloud in play). Around 20cm of snowfall will land over Friday evening and most of Saturday and, thanks to the downward trend of temperatures, will reach most slopes.

Looking ahead, the freezing line remains low overnight as we return to more of a spring-like freeze-thaw cycle. A dash of sunshine can be expected early next week before more snowy conditions move in.
