Ce territoire est caractérisé par son relief montagnard marqué (altitude comprise entre 400 et 3855 mètres avec les 3/4 de sa superficie située au dessus de 1500 mètres), un fond de vallée souvent encaissés où se sont développés l'agriculture, l'urbanisation, des pôles industriels et les voies de communication, des versants plus ou moins abrupts où ont pu s'implanter les stations de sports d'hiver et des milieux naturels de grande valeur écologique. Cependant ce territoire complexe par sa géographie et très hétérogène par la typologie des communes qui le composent a une identité sociale et économique qui a conduit à sa définition comme entité pertinente pour mener les études et élaborer le document de planification que constitue le schéma de cohérence territoriale (S.Co.T.).

  • Skihorizon Announces the 10 Most Popular European Ski Resorts of the Last Season Submitted By: SEPR Tuesday, 12 April 2011
    SkiHorizon announces the 10 most popular European ski resorts of the last season Submitted by: SEPR Tuesday, 12 April 2011 French ski resorts have proved to be the most popular in Europe, new sales data released today by SkiHorizon on the 2010-2011 winter ski season reveals. The French and the Brits continue to have different tastes for their ski holidays (http://www.skihorizon.co.uk/ski-holiday-guide) – French skiers and snowboarders are far more likely to ski in their own country, whereas British holidaymakers divide their loyalties between France, Switzerland and Austria. Top ski resorts: French bookers • Val Thorens • Les Deux Alpes • Avoriaz • Les Arcs 1800 • Les Menuires • Les Coches • Saint Sorlin d'Arves • Risoul • Tignes Val Claret • Plagne Bellecôte Top ski resorts: UK bookers • Morzine • Les Arcs • Saas Fee • Serre Chevalier • Avoriaz • La Plagne • St Anton • Megeve • Puy St Vincent • Alpe D'Huez Overall this illustrates that France is the most popular skiing destination among SkiHorizon’s customers. But Italy is steadily growing in popularity and SkiHorizon forecast that one of its resorts will break into the top 10 in the next few years. Mark Oliver, UK Marketing Manager at SkiHorizon commented: {{“It’s no surprise that the French overwhelmingly choose to ski in their own country, with world-beating ski resorts on their doorstep, it takes a lot of persuasion for them to try skiing in other countries. Page 1 “I do wish more French people would take the time to discover the dramatic scenery and the warm welcomes of Austria though, they would be very pleasantly surprised.”}} SkiHorizon has published guides to skiing and snowboarding across Europe.

  • Download the Press Pack Winter 2020/2021
    PRESS PACK WINTER 2020 / 2021 savoie mont blanc Located between lakes and mountains, Savoie Mont Blanc is a beautiful area for a winter break. Savoie Mont Blanc has 110 ski resorts, including some world-famous ones such as Val d’Isère, Méribel, Courchevel, Chamonix… and many more. But there are also some smaller ones, which are not well-known by British skiers. This winter could be the ideal time to visit a smaller resort for alpine skiing and also to try some other winter sport activities, such as cross-country skiing or snowshoeing. These eco-friendly activities are the perfect way to peacefully enjoy the beautiful vistas and the pure mountain air, while coming back super-fit from your holiday. If you opt for slow travel, why not stop for a few nights before or after going to a ski resort? There are many charming hotels in the pretty towns of Chambéry, Aix-les-Bains and Annecy, as well as by the lakes and in the vineyards. In the valleys and mountains, more and more hotels and residences are eco-friendly. This sustainable trend is being taken up by restaurants too, which are offering more and more organic, local and seasonal produce. Whatever type of winter holiday you choose, Savoie Mont Blanc is the perfect place to reboot and feel re-energised once back home. Savoie Mont Blanc is easy to access by plane (airports include Chambéry, Grenoble, Lyon and Geneva) and car. Although there is no Snowtrain this winter, Savoie Mont Blanc is still easily accessible by train: take the Eurostar to Paris or Lille, then the TGV to Chambéry or Annecy (it takes less than 3 hours from Paris to Chambéry and less than 4 hours for Annecy).
