Ski area β Espace Diamant
β°οΈ Altitudes: 950 m β 2050 m
πΏ Alpine skiing: 192 km
π° Day pass: 52 β¬
The Espace Diamant is a vast 192 km ski area with the distinctive feature of linking six charming Savoyard village resorts: Les Saisies, Hauteluce, Notre-Dame-de-Bellecombe, Flumet, Crest-Voland/Cohennoz and Praz-sur-Arly. Its major asset and signature is the ever-present and spectacular panorama over the Mont Blanc massif. Ranging from 1,000 to 2,070 metres altitude, the ski area is particularly appreciated by families and beginner to intermediate skiers. The run distribution confirms this, with a large majority of green and blue runs (nearly 60%) winding pleasantly between fir forests, clearings and high pastures. The atmosphere is relaxed and pressure-free, with generally smooth links between resorts. The ski area is also well-equipped with fun areas for all ages, including numerous boardercross runs, snowparks and the Opoualand childrenβs zone at Crest-Voland. Rather than depending on a single large resort, Espace Diamant draws its strength from its network of villages. Each resort preserves its identity while giving access to the entire ski area. Les Saisies, also known for its immense Nordic skiing domain, offers direct access and wide runs on well-snowed slopes. Crest-Voland/Cohennoz, Notre-Dame-de-Bellecombe and Praz-sur-Arly are ideal gateways for pleasure and family skiing. Hauteluce ensures a direct and quick link with the Saisies sector.
