Flaine
Discover Flaine
In the heart of the snow-sure Le Grand Massif ski area in France, you will find Flaine at an altitude of 1600 metres. The village is nestled in a valley surrounded by snowy peaks. Its iconic Bauhaus architecture was designed by the famous urban planner Marcel Breuer. He chose white buildings that follow the natural contours of the valley, so that the ski resort would blend harmoniously into its environment.
Flaine is known for its excellent snow record, so you’ll have perfect skiing conditions during your holiday. Le Grand Massif offers 265 kilometres of varied slopes, and you can explore them all using the ski pass included with a Sunweb holiday package. Cross-country skiers will also be spoilt for choice with over 160 kilometres of trails to enjoy. Will you join us in discovering Flaine?
Accommodation to suit everyone
Flaine is an excellent choice for a ski holiday with the whole family or a group of friends. The centre of the village is car-free, so children can explore and play safely. For older children and beginners, there are several blue slopes in Flaine. It is a peaceful ski area, a place to recharge and enjoy the beautiful surroundings while skiing. With Sunweb’s large range of accommodation to choose from, you’re sure to find something everyone will love. From an all-inclusive hotel with an extensive spa, to a self-catering apartment at the foot of the slopes, you get to decide every detail.
Unforgettable activities
Most people travel to Flaine to ski, snowboard, or cross-country ski. But that’s not all this diverse ski resort has to offer! If you’d like to do something different for a day, there are several unique and unforgettable activities to experience there. Why not take the cable car up to the summit of Grandes Platières? From there, you’ll have a spectacular, panoramic view of Mont Blanc (the highest mountain in the Alps) and its surrounding mountains. How about a scenic snowshoe hike or a dogsled ride through the snow? A helicopter flight over this beautiful ski resort will be an experience you’ll never forget. Brave travellers can even try their hand at ice diving. If you’d like to learn more about the unique architecture in Flaine, take a free guided tour or see the exhibitions at the Art Centre. What are you waiting for? Discover the many sides of Flaine this winter.

Map
Le Grand Massif
The ski area of Le Grand Massif, with approximately 265km of pistes, is regarded as one of the best ski resorts in France. The area has an altitude of 900m to 2500m. The ski area Le Grand Massif is known as a snow-sure resort. If there is snow falling in the French Alpes, it likely to be snowing in Flaine! Every year we get many messages from guests who have chosen to return to Le Grand Massif, a strong sign that once visited you will want to keep going back!
The pistes of Grand Massif are well-connected, consisting of Flaine, Samoens, Morillon and Les Carroz. The combination of these areas, make it the fourth biggest ski area in France. This fantastic area offers plenty of options for skiers and snowboarders of every level. Novices and intermediate skiers can head to one of the many wide pistes that are also ideal for snowboarders.
Snowboarders in Le Grand Massif can also test their skills in one of Europe’s biggest snow parks that include a half pipe, boarder cross and various jumps. Highly experienced will be happy to know that there is a challenge in Grand Massif: Gers descent!
There are also plenty of off-piste route or you can head off on one of the longer ski trails. We recommend the Cascade, a fantastic descent lasting 14 km.
There are rarely waiting times or queues in Flaine but you can expect the resort to be relatively full during French school holidays. On location you can opt for a hands free lift pass. This lift pass costs approximately € 3,- extra. All Sunweb packages include a lift pass for the full ski area (Grand Massif).
In the villages of Les Carroz and Samoëns you will find an extensive cross country skiing area. There is a total of 47 km of cross country tracks in the area. Samoëns is also the only ski resort with the official title of "Monument Historique”.
