Les Contamines
The information provided is purely advisory and was correct at the time of posting
but cannot be guaranteed and should not be relied upon without further corroboration.
Part of the 'Evasion Mont Blanc' ski area, Les Contamines offers great skiing, with advanced
skiers receiving the best treatment. The off-piste is excellent but a guide is a real must.
Intermediates have a good selection of pistes and can try some of the blacks, but the choice
for beginners is only adequate. Les Contamines has a reliable snow record even though it is
fairly low-lying. There is a broad range of accommodation and most of it is self-catering.
To reach the lifts you will need to take the bus, as they are on the far side of a river.
Les Contamines is largely unspoilt and maintains its rustic charm - it even has a weekly
market. Nightlife is limited to a small number of bars and a couple of clubs, but the
atmosphere is vibrant. The restaurant fare is nothing to write home about and is generally
quite basic. A true advantage is the low transfer time, with Geneva only 80km away.
Overall, Les Contamines is an ideal destination if you are looking for a more traditional
experience. Prices aren't too steep and if there isn't sufficient skiing for your needs you
can always skip over to other resorts in the Evasion area.
