Get to know Samoëns Ski Resort

Tucked away in the Haute-Savoie region, Samoëns offers a genuine French Alpine experience. This historic village, part of the Grand Massif ski area, gives you access to 265 km of diverse slopes. From gentle runs to challenging pistes, there’s something for every skier.

Samoëns’ charm lies in its blend of excellent skiing and rich heritage. The village, dating back to the 12th century, is recognised as a Monument Historique. You’ll see this history in the stone architecture and 16th-century church.

Recent upgrades to ski facilities ensure a smooth experience on the mountain. North-facing slopes mean reliable snow conditions throughout the season.

Just an hour from Geneva Airport, Samoëns is easily accessible. While you can’t ski directly into the village, a quick gondola ride connects you to the slopes.

After a day on the mountain, soak in the authentic atmosphere of this traditional French village. It’s this mix of great skiing and cultural depth that makes Samoëns special.

Skiing and activities in Samoëns

Samoëns offers more than just great skiing. This charming resort caters to all, from solo adventurers to families seeking a winter getaway. Modern lifts whisk you to varied terrain, while the village below preserves its authentic Alpine character. After a day on the slopes, unwind in cosy restaurants or lively bars for some classic après-ski.

Kids are well catered for with dedicated ski areas and off-slope activities. Whether you’re here to carve up the mountain, soak in the local culture, or simply relax in stunning surroundings, Samoëns has something for everyone.

The following sections will delve deeper into the resort’s many attractions and amenities.

Samoëns skiing: an overview

Samoëns offers a great mix of skiing for all levels within the Grand Massif. Beginners can find their feet on the nursery slopes at Samoëns 1600, easily reached by gondola. English-speaking instructors are on hand to help you get started.

Intermediate skiers have plenty to explore, with wide pistes and long runs like the scenic 14km Piste des Cascades. For the more advanced, there’s over 40km of challenging black runs and exciting off-piste options. The Combe de Gers area is particularly popular for its powder. Snowboarders and freestyle skiers aren’t left out, with several terrain parks scattered around the area.

Snow reliability is excellent here, averaging 5 metres annually. North-facing slopes and snowmaking on lower runs help maintain good conditions throughout the season.One thing to note: you’ll need to take a bus back to Samoëns village at the end of the day, as there’s no direct ski route down. But with such varied terrain on offer, it’s a small inconvenience for a great day on the slopes.

Non-skiing activities in Samoëns

Samoëns isn’t just about skiing – there’s a whole world of winter fun to explore. Strap on some snowshoes and crunch through pristine forests, or try your hand at dog sledding for a truly unique experience. Cross-country skiing trails offer a peaceful way to enjoy the landscape, while ice skating and sledding provide classic winter thrills.

For a bird’s-eye view, take to the skies with paragliding over the stunning Alps. If you prefer to keep your feet on the ground, winter hiking trails showcase the area’s natural beauty. And when you need a break from the cold, hit the bowling alley or catch a movie at the local cinema. There’s truly something for everyone, whether you’re seeking adventure or just want to soak in the winter wonderland atmosphere.

Things to do in Samoëns village

Samoëns village is a gem off the slopes, with charm that goes beyond its ski resort status. Wander the cobbled streets and you’ll find yourself stepping back in time. The village centre, dating back centuries, is a protected historical site, filled with traditional stone buildings and quaint shops.

For a slice of local life, hit the bustling Wednesday market. Here, you can sample regional cheeses, pick up handcrafted souvenirs, or just soak in the lively atmosphere. History buffs shouldn’t miss the Jaysinia Alpine Botanical Garden, home to over 8,000 mountain plants, or the local Ecomuseum showcasing rural alpine heritage.

When hunger strikes, cosy restaurants serve up hearty Savoyard specialties. Cap off your evening with a drink at one of the friendly local bars, where skiers and non-skiers alike mingle over warm glasses of vin chaud.

Family-friendly and kids’ fun in Samoëns

Samoëns is a dream destination for families, offering a perfect blend of skiing and off-slope fun. Kids as young as three can start their snow adventures at the ESF ski school’s kindergarten at Samoëns 1600, earning adorable “Piou Piou” badges as they progress. For more personalized attention, ZigZag and Ecole de Ski 360 offer tailored family lessons.

When the little ones need a break from skiing, there’s no shortage of activities. Try ice skating at one of the village rinks, go sledging on designated slopes, or take a magical horse-drawn carriage ride through town. Animal-loving kids aged five and up can even try their hand at wildlife tracking.

For indoor fun, there’s an adventure playground and weekly markets to explore. And if parents need some alone time, nanny services and activity clubs like “The Marmottes” are available to keep the kids entertained. With so much on offer, Samoëns ensures that family ski trips are packed with smiles both on and off the slopes.

Samoëns off the pistes

Samoëns après-ski

Samoëns may be traditional, but it knows how to party after dark. As the lifts wind down, the village comes alive with après-ski options to suit every mood.

For a laid-back vibe, head to Le Pub or La Boule de Neige. These cozy spots are perfect for sipping a beer or warming up with vin chaud by the fireplace. If you’re after something livelier, several bars host live music and themed nights that’ll have you dancing in your ski boots.

Families aren’t left out either – places like Le Grand Cerf offer a welcoming atmosphere for all ages. And for night owls, a few venues keep the party going well into the small hours.
