Overview of Le Lac Blanc
The Lac Blanc resort is a multi-faceted destination that lives intensely year-round. Its ski area is organised across two sectors: Lac Blanc 900 (Blancrupt) — the main entry point with a large car park, ideal for beginners; and Lac Blanc 1200 (Col du Calvaire) — the high-altitude sector offering the most technical runs and spectacular views. In winter, the resort is a paradise for all types of sliding. Alpine skiing is family-friendly and convivial, with a well-regarded snowpark and the possibility of night skiing. The Nordic ski area is one of the most appreciated in the massif for the beauty of its landscapes. But it is its ability to reinvent itself in summer that makes Lac Blanc so strong. The site becomes a leading destination for downhill mountain biking with its Bike Park, hiking with its famous barefoot trail, and family leisure with its rail sledge. This versatility, combined with its proximity to the Alsace Wine Route, makes it a complete and attractive mountain destination.
