Where to go for a weekend this winter in Savoie / Haute-Savoie?

If you dream of fresh air, snowy panoramas, and weekends that truly disconnect… here are 3 destinations I wholeheartedly recommend!

La Clusaz

Chalet atmosphere, lively resort, and a perfect ski area for a weekend getaway with friends or as a couple.

→ Ideal if you want a mix of sports, great restaurants, and alpine charm.

This ski resort is located about 40 minutes from Annecy, making it incredibly accessible, especially if you arrive by train.

It's not a large resort like those in Savoie. It's truly authentic, with only chalets and small residences.

Its ski area is varied and caters to all levels.

La Rosière

Sunny, family-friendly, and connected to Italy.

→ Perfect if you want to ski a large area without the crowds of the more popular resorts.

A lesser-known resort, but one that rivals the big names. With breathtaking mountain scenery and sunsets worthy of the greatest skiers, La Rosière is perfect for families and groups of friends alike.

Its ski area is linked to Italy, making it a vast and varied playground. Snow conditions are also often excellent!

Aix-les-Bains

Lake + mountains + spas.

→ The ideal option if you want a more relaxed stay: walks, relaxation, and hotels with incredible views.

A completely different atmosphere, but just as pleasant... Aix-les-Bains charms with its tranquil, historic town.

Next to Lake Bourget, it's the perfect getaway to enjoy the mountains and spa treatments, while savoring the region's typical dishes!

The real secret?

The perfect destination depends mainly on: your travel dates, your budget, your skill level/desires, and the atmosphere you're looking for.

That's exactly what I take into account when creating a tailor-made trip 🤍
