Skiing, snow and winter sports: winter in Crévoux

Welcome to Crévoux, a delightfully human-scale winter holiday paradise set in wild and astonishing natural scenery. This family-style ski resort is also widely appreciated by freeride fans who come here from the world over to meet on the soaring summits. There’s nothing quite like whooshing down the vast expanses of powder snow as you lap up the panoramic views… Set facing North and boasting a 1,000-metre incline, the domain certainly keeps its promises. Families will enjoy the family park at the bottom of the slopes, or gliding gently down the easy slopes between impressive larch trees half way up to the top. Rising to 2,550 m, the 22 km downhill skiing domain comprises 16 slopes: 3 green, 7 blue, 5 red and 1 black. But Crévoux is also a kingdom of cross-country and the race held here every year is named after the French champion Coraline Thomas-Hugue.
