Visitor Reviews of Aillons-Margeriaz

Paul Tuohy from UNITED KINGDOM writes:

What a gem of a resort! We stayed at Le Chamois in Les Aillon and skied 2 days, with 4 at the higher resort of Margeriaz. Whilst most Brits were heading to the headline resorts of Les Arc, la Plagne, etc.. you will be struck by the complete non-existence of British skiers in the beautiful Les Bauges country park. With no snow for over two weeks, Margeriaz still had 135cm and the conditions were great. It's a family holiday dream with ample blues and reds. All the skiers are French locals with visitors coming from the northern departments such as Pas de Calais. Ski de Fond (cross-country) is popular as is snow-shoeing for those who prefer off-piste mountain air. It's like going back in time with children using 80's equipment and hand-me-downs and no one cares..And best of all - both resorts for a 90 Euro lift pass - less than half the price of the major resorts. Most beginners and intermediates will only use 25% of the big resort runs so this represents amazing value. You are only 13miles from Chambery airport!! and an hour from Geneva or Grenoble. An afternoon trip to beautiful Annecy (40mins drive) for lunch was thrown in after an early morning ski on one day.
In summary - a traditional French ski resort that is incredibly understated with masses of country appeal. Family of four with ski passes, hotel accommodation, breakfast and 3 course meals 7 nights, petrol, tolls, ferry, 50 Euro a day spending for lunch and drinks - all in - £1,980. Our similar trips to larger resorts have come out at about £3,200. Check out the Les Ailoon Margeriaz website and treat yourself...
