Skiing in the French Alps is not just a winter affair. As the clocks ‘spring’ forward and the days grow longer, April ushers a different kind of experience – milder weather, quieter slopes, and an even more vibrant après-ski scene. With plenty of fun still to be had in the mountains, we’ve collaborated with Live365 partner Oxford Ski Company to unveil the best ski resorts and chalets, perfect for rounding up an already great season.
Val d’Isère
Perched high in the Tarentaise Valley in Southeast France, Val d'Isère reigns as a premier spring skiing destination, blending alpine chic with world-class slopes. Paired with Tignes, it forms the esteemed ‘Espace Killy’ ski area, boasting 300km of pistes. Towering at nearly 3,500m, it's among the Alps' most snow-sure regions. Embracing its reputation for vibrant nightlife, Val d'Isère also offers an eclectic array of après-ski spots, perfect for unwinding after exhilarating days on the slopes.
