The mountain in summer

Summer is getting ready and beautiful summer walks await you in altitude. To spend a summer in the mountains is above all to recharge your batteries, as close as possible to nature. But it also means having a lot of adventures with a diversity of landscapes and protected areas. In summer, the ski resorts are changing and offer many activities for the whole family. The snow has melted, the fauna and flora are waking up and you can admire large natural and wild spaces. But which destination to choose? 

MOUNTAIN BIKING

During the summer period, the ski resorts offer a multitude of mountain bike trails for all levels. Just like skiing, the slopes are coloured according to the difficulty of the terrain and natural obstacles. For downhill mountain biking, enduro or freeride, the resorts prepare the trails so that you can enjoy cycling in complete safety. 

Some sports are a must in summer, such as the bike park at Les 2 Alpes. Renowned for the diversity of the tracks and its difference in altitude of almost 2500 m, the resort allows you to set off at the foot of the snow and to ride down almost 86 km of tracks. Les Arcs is also a beautiful mountain bike destination with more than 180 km of marked trails. Its Cross-Country itineraries will delight the most sporty while its freestyle area will allow you to test your skills at slopestyle.

SKIING IN SUMMER

Because you can't let go of your spatulas, it is possible to ski all year round! The glaciers of the Alps offer snow 12 months of the year and allow snow sports enthusiasts to enjoy the slopes under a summer sun.  For ski slope enthusiasts and turn freaks, it is possible to ski in summer on the different glaciers. 

Val d'Isère, Tignes or Les 2 Alpes, some ski resorts offer to ski down their domain at very high altitude. Ideal for ski clubs, these glaciers offer snow all year round and are mostly accessible for all levels. Spending a summer in Tignes is a great way to enjoy the 20 km of slopes at an altitude of almost 3,000 metres. It also means discovering an incredible panorama of the Tarentaise valley.
