Le Grand Bornand, France

The French ski resort of Le Grand Bornand is located in the heart of the Aravas massif, between Geneva and Chamonix. Here you get to experience a skiing holiday in a charming alpine village that has managed to be combined with the latest technical equipment to be able to offer the best of both worlds. The village has succeeded in preserving its genuine community by refurbishing it and today many come here to fall in love with the views, both of the village and of the snow-capped Alps. Here you feel comfortable as soon as you have arrived, and it is well worth taking a few walks around the village to soak up the historic and charming community.
