La Baume

La Baume is set in a privileged position halfway between lake Geneva and Morzine Portes du Soleil. 
The little village of la Baume has many trumps up its sleeve: - Trout fishing, in the Jotty lake and the river Dranse. - Hiking in the grandiose and precipitous setting of Mont Billat (1896m), by easy paths up to the pastoral Nifflon chapel and the grazing lands of the Pleney mountain. - For gourmands, don't forget the little detour by the beekeeper's chalet, where some of the best mountain honey can be found. There are a number of ski resorts accessible from the Chalet; the nearest being St Jean d'Aulps / Le Grande Terche. You can also visit Le Biot, or the larger resorts of Morzine, Avoriaz and Les Gets are only around 15-20 minutes by car.

Situated in the heart of the valley, the village of Saint Jean d'Aulps has inherited its name from the old French word for "alpage" meaning high mountain grazing land. Thanks to its Abbey and the monks who lived there, Saint Jean d'Aulps can claim to be the ancestor of all the surrounding villages. Those who like hiking can find here marvelous summits and combs : the Roc d'Enfer, the Graydon comb, the Roc de Tavaneuse and its lake, the Pic de la Corne and many more. With the growth of the skiing industry, Saint Jean d'Aulps has also become an important winter sports resort, which has many natural advantages for skiers. The saint Jean d'Aulps Ski Domain has an excellent snow record, and is an integral part of the Portes du Soleil ski area.

9 skilifts : 1 gondola, 2 chairlifts, 6 draglifts At Saint Jean d'Aulps, discover the wonderful Roc d'Enfer Tour! 20km ski slopes in a natural and protected environnement. You will enjoy the beautiful landscape with views on Les Dents du Midi in Switzerland, the Leman Lake, the Graydon Combe and the majestic Roc d'Enfer! You will join Saint Jean d'Aulps ski resort on skis by La Chèvrerie and Le Col des Follys. Have a break in the typical savoyard restaurant on the ski area or at the ski resort and enjoy the warmly and family atmosphere!

 


Getting There


You may wish to take your own car and if so, La Baume is an approximate 8 hour drive from Calais, although, 
we have found that flying with Easyjet, or Ryanair, and hiring an ordinary family car from Geneva airport can be just as cheap, and as Morzine is only a one and a quarter hour drive this can be a hassle free way of beginning your holiday. We have even negotiated a special online discount. For Car Hire Click HERE
