LE GRAND BORNAND: A PARADISE FOR SPORTS AND NATURE LOVERS, A FAMILY DESTINATION
With the Aravis ski pass, you're free to explore the different resorts: Le Grand Bornand, of course, but also La Clusaz and Manigod, with a total of 230km of varied slopes to suit all levels of skier and snowboarder - linked by shuttle bus. Le Grand Bornand has 84 km of pistes spread over 47 slopes: 5 black, 12 red, 15 blue, 15 green, including a freeride area and a 1,100 m vertical drop slope, the Snow Park, ranked among the 5 best in France. Don't worry if you don't ski, we'll guide you on some great snowshoeing, dog-sledding or even horse-riding (snow joering), ice-skating, paragliding, swimming or a relaxing afternoon at the spa or experiencing massage at the chalet.
Le Grand Bornand is the ultimate family destination, with its ‘Famille Plus’ label. It offers a varied programme of events and activities for young holidaymakers. In summer, the international festival ‘Au bonheur des Mômes’ at the end of August delights young and old alike with its street parades, live shows, puppets, circus workshops and fireworks - don't forget to book your tickets in advance!
Le Grand Bornand also has a 9-hole golf course and an aquatic complex in summer with a large swimming pool, surrounded by large lawns ideal for picnics.
If you're a sporty type, you'll be spoilt for choice with mountain passes to cycle over, rock climbing, an accrobranche course, via ferrata, white-water rafting or paragliding to enjoy in the surrounding area, not forgetting canyoning or canoeing, kayaking or paddle-boarding on Lake Annecy, a little further away - the medieval Old Town is a must-see, and it's not for nothing that Annecy is nicknamed ‘the Venice of the Alps’! It hosts markets and antique shops once a month, ideal for strolling around with its many stalls, galleries, museums and varied restaurants! If you're a gourmet, you won't know which Michelin-starred restaurant to choose in the region, so make sure you book well in advance! Chamonix is often a great day out (plan a full day and book in advance if you want to climb the Aiguille du Midi). Tignes Resort also attracts ski fans, with its glaciers open almost all year round!
