Geneva to Les Carroz Transfer
Les Carroz has family appeal!
Les Carroz (or Les Carroz d’Araches to give the resort its proper name) is an authentic Savoyard mountain village sitting on a sunny plateau at 1140m on the road to Flaine, where the ambience is very much relaxed and chilled out. And although it’s certainly not a party town, there is just enough to keep everyone entertained both on and off the slopes, with friendly locals too (the permanent population is around 1700).
As for the skiing, we have to admit it’s not the most challenging, but it is perfect for families Les Carroz is particularly good for children. Non-skiers wanting to watch the little ones haven’t been forgotten, with the Telecarroz lift designed to take both skiers and pedestrians up and down in order to ease access on foot to (and back down from) the departure station of the gondola.
Those helpful little extras to make your Les Carroz holiday a success
We’d never recommend walking in ski boots to the lift if you have youngsters in tow, as its a surefire recipe for stress and will probably wear you all out before you’ve even started your ski day on the slopes. The Les Carroz lift company also knows this and has come up with an ingenious solution – heated ski lockers at the bottom of the bubble lift!
For around 50€ for a week, you have a secure locker large enough for all the ski gear for a family of four. Imagine arriving in your nice comfy trainers in the morning to a lovely warm pair of ski boots? One of those small, but very significant details that makes Les Carroz such a convenient resort.
The best of Les Carroz skiing
That’s not to say Les Carroz is only suitable for kids and beginners – far from it in fact. Taking the main Kedeuze bubble lift up from resort takes you directly to the Tete des Saix, the centre point of the whole Grand Massif ski area, in just six minutes. From here you can test yourself on the steeps of Flaine, or go for a thigh-burner of a run all the way down to Morillon to give you just two options. And we must mention the Sarbotte home-run – it’s a true tree-lined delight and offers easy end of the day skiing back to resort.
Summer season Les Carroz style
Not only is Les Carroz a superb little family-favourite winter ski resort, it’s also a really nice place to head to in the summer. There are miles and miles of signposted hiking paths, mountain biking trails, canyoning, pot holing and loads more besides. So if you fancy a trip over to see the cows and goats grazing on the grassy slopes you skied down in winter, Mountain Drop-offs will organise a private transfer for you to Les Carroz in summer like in winter.
