About La Clusaz
La Clusaz is a genuinely charming Savoyard village in the Aravis massif, 75 minutes from Geneva, that retains the stone chalets and church steeple of a working mountain community rather than the purpose-built anonymity of many French resorts. Its 125km of piste spread across five sectors suit confident beginners through solid intermediates, with the Aiguille and Beauregard sectors offering the most varied terrain. The resort is particularly strong on family infrastructure — children's areas are thoughtfully located near the village — and the proximity to Annecy means a natural cultural excursion is always within reach.
