month by month
in Crest Voland
January
We are starting the year right in the high season with good snow cover and a 100% open ski area. This is the time to indulge in the joys of board sports outside of school holidays.
February
The winter rush with our almost full resort village. The winter holidays have finally arrived and it's high time for young and old alike to take advantage of the Espace Diamant and its 192km of slopes.
March
Back to a more peaceful pace after the school holidays but still with excellent snow cover. In March, the sweetness returns little by little, the ski suits give way little by little to sweaters or even T-shirts!
April
There is still time to take advantage of the last snow at the top of the slopes. Skiing is always in order in April even if the delicious winter white coat turns green again with the arrival of spring. One thing is sure, don't discover yourself with a thread.
May
That's it, the snow is behind us! But no time to be idle, spring is already well established. The arrival of summer is on the horizon, the trees regain their foliage, the flowers their colors and the hiking trails are redrawn to us.
June
Farewell to the ski slopes, hello to mountain biking, hiking, trails and even strolls in strollers. If the green, blue, red and black slopes are well known to skiers, did you know that there is the same information for mountain bikers?
July
If the Tour de France is used to passing through the most beautiful regions of France, it never makes an exception to the Val d'Arly. Normal, you say! And if you don't like the bike more than that, turn to the rivers to discover our waterfalls and our canyoning activities.
August
Spending a summer in Crest-Voland means rediscovering nature through hundreds of kilometers of hiking trails. Come face to face with a marmot, an ibex or a deer. Appreciate the Aravis range and the mythical Mont Blanc from all angles. And have a delicious time with our local producers.
September
Enjoy a beautiful Indian summer in the tranquility of September. You can go to one of the many lakes of Val d'Arly, including Mont Lachat with its breathtaking view of Mont Blanc, its walkways in the trees and its barbecues installed all around the body of water. What happiness...
October
White in winter, green in summer and a magical mix of orange, red and yellow in autumn. With this unique coloring, a walk in the forest is always a magical moment where the picking of champions and the collection of chestnuts are always in order.
November
The autumn leaves have all fallen, the snows are pointing the tip of their noses but not enough to ski. And if you take the opportunity to turn to the air? Take to the skies with climbing and tree climbing activities... Not high enough? So go up in a hot air balloon or go paragliding!
December
Here we are ! The moment everyone is waiting for in Crest-Voland: the reopening of the slopes with the arrival of the snow. Let's go for 5 months of skis, sledges, snowshoes, tartiflettes, raclettes, fondues and mulled wine... not to mention the Christmas and New Year's Day activities.
