  • French Alps & the Jura
    © Lonely Planet 238 A R JU E H T & S P L French Alps & the Jura NCH A RE HIGHLIGHTS F Conquering the Alpe d’Huez (p261) Teetering on the edge of the Gorges da la Bourne (p242) Slowly approaching the hilltop, medieval-fortified village of Nozeroy (p255) Conquering the highest pedalled pass – Col du Galibier 2645m (p241) TERRAIN Extremely mountainous in the Alps, and mainly rolling hills in the Jura with some real lung-crushers from time to time. Telephone Code – 03 www.franche-comte.org www.rhonealpestourisme.com Awesome, inspiring, tranquil, serene – superlatives rarely do justice to the spectacular landscapes of the French Alps and the Jura. Soaring peaks tower above verdant, forested valleys, alive with wild flowers. Mountain streams rush down from dour massifs, carving out deep gorges on their way. Mont Blanc, Grandes Jorasses and Barre des Écrins for mountaineers. Val d’Isère, Chamonix and Les Trois Vallées for adrenaline junkies. Vanoise, Vercors and Jura for great outdoors fans. So many mythical names, so many expectations, and not a hint of flagging: the Alps’ pulling power has never been so strong. What is so enticing about the Alps and the Jura is their almost beguiling range of qualities: under Mont Blanc’s 4810m of raw wilderness lies the most spectacular outdoor playground for activities ranging from skiing to canyoning, but also a vast historical and architectural heritage, a unique place in French cuisine (cheese, more cheese!), and some very happening cities boasting world-class art. So much for the old cliché that you can’t have it all.

  • Granfondo & Sportive Coaching Camp, La Clusaz 6–13 June 2021
    GranFondo & Sportive Coaching Camp, La Clusaz 6–13 June 2021 Welcome! The Alpine Cols difference: • A real expertise and focus on one-on-one coaching for performance. • Intimate knowledge of the best climbs in the Alps. • Excellent hotels, fantastic food and 5* service! Marvin, Emmanuelle, Olivier and Stéphane are looking forward to a wonderful week’s cycling with you, having fun while we learn and train together. The camp includes rides, workshops and one-on-one coaching sessions to help you improve your performance. There are some long rides, but always with a strong focus on technique, such as descending or pacing for GranFondos or multi-stage events like the Haute Route. The off-the-bike activities give you key points to focus on the following day as well as during the later build-up to your key events. There will also be daily massages available to help recovery during the camp. From convivial buffet breakfasts to relaxed dinners in the cosy dining room, via picnic lunches and the “cake of the day” French gastronomy takes pride of place and the meals are a real highlight of the day. Our goal is that you have a wonderful time and leave us fitter, but also more efficient, with better technique and with a clear picture of what you need to work on in the coming months. More than that, we hope you become friends who will come back again and again - as is already the case for many of you! Safe rides, Marvin & Emmanuelle Marvin MA, MBA, BC coach CYCLING COACHES Marvin, Olivier, Silas, Stéphane and Yannick are not only highly qualified, experienced cycling coaches but also strong (or very strong!) competitors in their own right.

  • A Great Season, Everyone!
    GUIDE FOR SEASONAL WORKERS WINTER/SUMMER 2010-2011 HAVE A GREAT Pays du Mont-Blanc - Arve Valley SEASON Hello and welcome! 652,000 tourist beds 2nd most popular department for tourism in France From Mont Blanc and the Aravis mountains to the shores of Lake Léman and Lake Annecy, Haute-Savoie offers an idyllic setting for numerous seasonal employees. These workers help ensure enjoyable holidays for tourists from all over the globe. With the current economic climate showing signs of improvement, tourism remains the number one job creation sector in Haute Savoie, showing expansion in the hospitality and ski lift industries. Tourism is an industry that can’t be relocated overseas, and thus represents a vital asset for the future. Since 2007, the public authorities (national government, Regional Councils, and General Councils), elected officials, labour and management groups, and all players involved in social issues (C.A.F., C.P.A.M., M.S.A., subsidized housing, occupational health services) have mobilized to promote seasonal employment as a priority for the department, notably including it in a goals charter. With this framework in mind, and to ensure that seasonal workers « have a good season », the regions of Pays du Mont Blanc and Chablais have mobilized to welcome these employees by means of the Chamonix « Espace Saisonnier » (centre for seasonal workers) and the Chablais « Point Accueil Saisonnier » (information desk for seasonal workers). On a larger scale, Haute-Savoie strives to inform seasonal workers more thoroughly by publishing this guide. Here, employees and employers will find answers to a variety of questions that may concern them, including training, employment, working conditions, health, and housing.

  • Chalet Grande Corniche Is Unquestionably One of the Most Spectacular and Luxurious Chalets in Les Portes Du Soleil
    CHALET GRANDE CORNICHE IS UNQUESTIONABLY ONE OF THE MOST SPECTACULAR AND LUXURIOUS CHALETS IN LES PORTES DU SOLEIL.

A traditional dairy farming community in years of old, Les Gets has become one of the most popular ski destinations in The Alps for families, due to its relaxed yet vibrant atmosphere, close proximity to the airport and being part of one of Europe’s largest linked ski areas. With 650km of slopes to enjoy across the Portes du Soleil, there is something to cater for all abilities; from the wide, groomed pistes in Les Gets and Mont Chery to the steeper more challenging slopes in Avoriaz and Chatel. Cross-border skiing is also on offer and the world famous “Swiss Wall” is a real challenge for expert skiers. In addition to the fantastic range of skiing available, the panoramic views are some of the most breath-taking in The Alps; the view of Mont Blanc from the top of the Chamossiere is simply stunning. The village is full of life with around 100 bars, shops and restaurants to frequent and an outdoor ice rink adds to the charm.
