The charming alpine town of Flaine has been leading the way in skiing for generations. In 1973 it was the first place in Europe to use snow making machines and today it is one of the most reliable spots in the Alps for snow coverage, thanks largely to its predominantly north facing slopes that retain snow. Flaine is a genuine all round resort, with a balance of green, blue, red and black runs, as well as ample off-piste territory and some nursery slopes served by free lifts, ideal for those taking their first steps on skis. Casual or intermediate skiers can soak up the panoramic views on the Cascades blue run, leading from the high point of the entire Grand Massif ski area at the top of the Flaine bowl, 14 km above the village of Sixt. Parts of the Flaine bowl, such as the 45 degree slopes of Gers, offer challenging terrain for expert skiers.
