The Massif des Aravis: Authentic Alpine Charm

Unlike many purpose-built ski destinations, the Aravis has resisted overdevelopment. The region is famous for its Reblochon cheese production and traditional Savoyard architecture, ensuring a sense of authenticity that permeates the area.

The mountains offer exceptional appeal across all seasons. Winter transforms the region into a playground for skiing, snowboarding, and snowshoeing, while summer attracts visitors for mountain biking, hiking, and paragliding over the valleys.

Explore the Villages of the Aravis

Nestled within these valleys are some of the region’s most charming mountain villages. These communities have evolved into sophisticated resorts while remaining working villages inhabited by local residents and artisans year-round.

For those seeking the perfect holiday rental, two of the most popular destinations in the Massif des Aravis include:

• La Clusaz: Perhaps the best-known village in the range, La Clusaz balances a vibrant ski resort atmosphere with traditional rustic charm. It is ideal for those seeking extensive slopes and a lively village centre.

• Manigod: For a more tranquil escape, Manigod offers a peaceful retreat with easy access to the slopes. It is the perfect choice for families and those looking to experience the quiet beauty of the mountains.

Whether you are looking for a winter ski chalet or a summer alpine apartment, the region’s proximity to Annecy makes it an accessible escape for travellers seeking authentic mountain life without the commercial intensity of larger mega-resorts.
