Domaine Skiable des Houches
Situated slightly lower on the valley side, Les Houches (950m - 1,900m) is known for its tree-lined pistes and sheltered runs, making it an excellent choice on bad weather days. It offers 55km of slopes, a good mix of blue and red, suitable for families and intermediate skiers. It's also home to the famous 'Verte des Houches' World Cup downhill run, a challenging black piste. The 'Mont Blanc' gondola provides direct access. Operating hours 8:30 AM - 4:45 PM. Day pass prices are similar to Domaine de Balme.
