Grand Massif Things To Do

Le Grand Massif is home to both traditional villages and a modern purpose-built centre, and offers a wide range of activities for all the family, both on and off the slopes. There's plenty of authentic French charm and rustic character in the small villages such as Samoens, Morillon and Les Carroz, with weekly Savoyard markets, cheese-tasting at local farms, and regular food and wine evenings in the villages. Morillon is known for its 16th-century church, whilst the charming village of Samoens offers guided walking tours around its historic centre.

The apres-ski in Le Grand Massif is fairly relaxed, with Flaine boasting the liveliest venues, including some music bars and British-style pubs, and the smaller villages having a laid-back local atmosphere.  

 

Dining is generally good value and family-friendly, with cafes, pizzerias and bistros featuring Alpine fare and plenty of regional Savoyard specialities.
