Val d’Isère For skiing and saunas
France’s biggest winter playground is postcard-pretty, with its stony baroque church, boutiques and cosy cafes. Set in the Savoie department of the Alps, the area’s snow record is as impressive as the pistes. Lovely gentle runs cater for beginners and intermediates – follow the trails graded green that spread out from the top of the Borsat chairlift.
