The village ...
Crest-Voland / Cohennoz
Nestled in the heart of Savoie in a preserved valley, you will appreciate - with family or friends - this village resort on a human scale where people live all year round far from the "snow factories". The atmosphere is gentle and peaceful thanks to the warmth of its inhabitants and the tranquility of its landscapes. With many accommodations at the foot of the slopes, it is the ideal playground for learning all types of snow sports, but also for lovers of stronger sensations. Crest-Voland / Cohennoz has been labeled Famille Plus since 2018. The "Famille Plus" pictogram helps you find the activities and shops that are committed to a personalized welcome for families.
The ski resort ...
Espace Diamant
Experience great skiing ! A mid-mountain area (1000-2069m), Espace Diamant is sometimes nicknamed the "snow loft" of Savoie. Located on the foothills of Mont Blanc, the snow is generally more present than in other areas that are higher in altitude. It invites you to freedom in the heart of its preserved spaces with multiple facets: snow-capped peaks, forests, slalom slopes, etc. As it is the tenth largest ski area in France in terms of surface area, you will be free to hurtle down its 192 km of slopes at your own pace. Depending on your level and your desires, it is also possible to choose ski passes giving access to two smaller areas: Crest-Voland / Cohennoz (30 km of slopes) and Espace Val d'Arly (120 km of slopes).
