Résidence Les Terrasses de Labrau is located directly on the pistes and in the center of the beautiful resort of Foux d'Allos. In the morning, you can walk straight out of the complex and onto the slopes. After dinner in the center, the walk home will be quick too.
The apartments are spacious and modern. After an energetic day outdoors, it's time for a well deserved drink! No need to go too far as there is a charming bar in the resisdence itself. Will you be joining for an “apéro”? To completely unwind, take a dip in the swimming pool and hammam.
The reception is located on the left in the hall of Les Chalets du Verdon.
The swimming pool that they you can use is the swimming pool at Les chalets du Verdon.
In the beautiful Espace Lumiere, in the Southern Alps lies the village of La Foux d'Allos. The village, which also goes by the name Val d'Allos 1800 La Foux, has an authentic look with many traditional wooden buildings. It has up to 300 days of sunlight a year yet still captures a lot of snow. Perfect for endless skiing and enjoying sunny terraces.
La Foux d'Allos is characterized by luxurious residences and hip, trendy nightlife. Combined with competitive prices, this makes it a very attractive destination.
The ski area of Pra- Loup, which is called Espace Lumière, is a wonderful surprise. Most of the pistes are not very difficult. The slopes are not very steep, which makes it a good ski area for both beginners and semi-intermediate skiers. However, this does not mean that this ski resort is not suitable for intermediate and advanced skiers. This resort also offers black ski runs and for the dare devils there are numerous off piste possibilities as well.
Espace Lumière consists of 2 different areas. The Pra-Loup area is now connected to the ski area of La Foux-d'Allos which has expanded the ski resort. If you are a fan of touring the slopes all day, we recommend the area towards La Foux-d'Allos. Since most of the slopes are on the north side of the mountain, the chances of there being snow on the slopes are higher than in the direction of Pra-Loup.
Espace Lumière is also suitable for snow boarders. Near the Gimette lift snow boarders have their own piste. There is a snow park on the Le Lac slope and the half- pipe can be found on the slope of Pra Chauvet, which will be lit up when the sun starts to set.
