Winter
We love the winter and the snow. Lucky then that we are based in one of the best kept secrets of the French Alps. An hour from Geneva means that the Massif des Aravis, which includes the resorts of La Clusaz and Le Grand Bornand, is perfectly situated for stress-free skiing and snowboarding.
We enjoy organising your family holiday, your off piste adventures or your business weekend. Look out for our Traverse Away Days where we organise ski touring and split boarding adventures to including Swiss Monasteries and Norwegian Fjords. They really are quite fun!

Holidays
The Massif des Aravis covers three ski areas, La Clusaz, Manigod and Le Grand Bornand and offers a huge variety of different options for piste and off piste. This means it does not matter what your level is, you will be able to have a great time in our mountains.
We work with locals to provide quality and affordable accommodation for your stay. This could be an self-catering apartment or a half-board hotel. Sometimes it is cheaper to organise everything for yourself, but we do everything at cost so taking the hassle away without increasing prices. It works!
Partnering up with the lift pass companies, transfer companies, ski hire shops, ski school and restaurants means that you can concentrate on just getting down the mountain!
Business Weekends
Business Weekends
For a business ski weekend, location is everything. Less than an hour's drive from Geneva means that travelling does not eat into your trip. We welcome you at the airport and make sure everyone is on the coach. This journey is a perfect place to get all the administration such as lift pass distribution out of the way so that you are ready to go when you arrive (most of the time people squeeze in a half day of skiing).
Your group can then settle in for the weekend and concentrate on team building! We have been using both the Hotel le Vermont and Hotel Beau Site which offer spa facilities for the apres ski. It would not be a trip to the Alps without a cheese based dish for dinner!
Please get in touch for more information, we cater for groups of all sizes...
Traverse Away Days
Traverse Away Days
We love ski touring and split boarding here in the Aravis. Going up under your own power, makes the down more exhilarating. It also gets you out into the wilderness to fully appreciate the beauty of the mountains. The journey is the adventure. As such, each Winter, as part of our Traverse Away Days, we like to go a little further afield.
April 2020 will see the creation of the Traverse Lodge in the Lyngen Alps, in Norway. This unbelievably beautiful area has been our end of season venue for the last few year's now and Traverse Away Days is looking forward to bringing more people to experience the sensation of skiing to the sea!
Our Monks Tour is always popular, a weekend to the Grand Saint Bernard Monastery in Switzerland gives the opportunity to do some high alpine day touring and experience the isolation and stillness of the monastery. We also have plans to return to Arolla in the Swiss Valais region. Plenty of great skiing and also touring around here!
