Les Houches offers a limited but pleasant Nordic skiing experience, mainly around the Lac des Chavants. Two loops of around 3 kilometres each allow free skiing in a charming setting with mountain views. These trails are not groomed daily, so it is advisable to check conditions before visiting. Higher up, 5.5 km of cross-country ski trails are also available at altitude, at the top of the Prarion cable car at 1,850 m. This skating route requires the prior purchase of a return pedestrian ticket. For a more substantial Nordic offering, skiers should head to other sites in the Chamonix valley such as the Argentiere or Chamonix Nordic ski areas. The most well-regarded nearby domain is that of Les Contamines-Montjoie.
