Évasion Mont-Blanc
About the area
Evasion Mont Blanc spreads 298 km of pistes across the French Alps, and the split is unusually even: 38 km green, 100 km blue, 112 km red and 39 km black. Beginners are well served — 139 km, or 46% of the terrain, is green or blue, with 8 magic carpets for first steps and around 30 short easy runs right next to a lift base. Families get 15 gondolas and cable cars, so small children never have to load a chairlift. Experts have 47 km of black, expert and freeride skiing (16%), including 8 km of marked freeride.
The area runs from 819 m up to 2444 m, so lower slopes depend on conditions while the higher sectors hold snow better. There are 106 lifts in total, among them 35 chairlifts and 33 platters. The longest run measures 2730 m and the biggest vertical on a single descent is 430 m. Cross-country skiers have 53 km of trails.
