Destination guide

Experience winter with a capital WOW!

Winter sports destinations don't come much more impressive than France's Savoie department. Packed with top-ranking resorts including Tignes, Les Arcs, and Val d'Isere, it's 1 of the best places on earth to go hurtling down the side of a mountain. Cross-country skiing, snowboarding, ice-climbing, and snowmobiling are just some of the activities on offer in the heart of the French Alps. Of course, things don't simply shut down when the snow melts. Savoie vacation rentals are just as popular in the summer when travelers flock here to enjoy the region's spas, medieval villages, alpine hiking, and gastronomic delights.

Things to do

Soak up the scenery or soak in a spa

Depending on the time of year, Savoie vacation rentals can be surrounded by snowy peaks or lush green mountains. Either way, you're always guaranteed breathtaking views at every turn. In fact, you'll likely have a tough job keeping your smartphone in your pocket. Drive the Route des Grandes Alpes as it passes through alpine pastures and over 9,000-ft peaks, or pull on your hiking boots to get up close and personal with the Vanoise National Park. Feel your cares slip away as you slide into thermal waters at Aix-les-Bains, or soak up some local culture by wandering through the galleries of Musee des beaux-arts de Chambery.

Activities

Carve memories on the slopes to last a lifetime

Snow sports are Savoie's bread and butter, and the area has a well-deserved reputation for delivering excellent conditions and world-class facilities. Skiers and snowboarders can choose from a vast number of resorts to suit all abilities, including the enormous Paradiski ski area—a winter wonderland that spans the resorts of Les Arcs and La Plagne, and offers 425 km of pistes. Just make sure you've still got energy for the apres-ski party. During the summer, activities such as rock climbing, hiking, paragliding, and horse riding are all popular. If that sounds too much like hard work, don't worry because you can relax in 1 of Savoie's spa towns.

Weather

Thermals and chocolat chaud are the order of the day

Things can get pretty chilly in Savoie once winter arrives, so make sure you're prepared. Like other mountainous parts of France, rainfall tends to be higher and temperatures lower than the rest of the country. During winter, average lows tend to be in the mid-20s, while summer temperatures typically peak in the high 70s. If you can be flexible with your dates, booking Savoie vacation rentals in January, outside of the main school holiday periods, is the best way to get a good deal.

Natural features

With views this impressive, you'll need a new memory card

When you've got peaks like Mont Blanc on your doorstep, you're entitled to brag a little. The Regional Natural Park of the Bauges and Vanoise National Park both lie within Savoie, along with a section of the Regional Natural Park of Chartreuse. They're home to a variety of protected flora and fauna, and if you're lucky you might be able to catch a glimpse of a golden eagle, an ibex, or a chamois. Savoie's stretches of open water are no less impressive. Lake Bourget is France's largest and deepest lake, magnificently bordered to the north by the Jura Mountains.
