Since the 1960s, skiing has been the number one winter activity in the mountains. And with good reason! With an infinite variety of resorts, ski areas and activities, the French mountains are an ideal playground. From the Alps to the Pyrenees, via the Vosges, the Jura and the Massif Central, you’re sure to find something to suit you.
