TO VISIT...

 

 

Thônes


A small town in the Northern Alps, with a population of 5500, tucked away next to its 17th century church tower and dominated by the well known peaks of la Tournette (2351 m) and Lachat (2024 m).


The town of Thônes invites you to discover its countryside , heritage, way of life, history and spirit and wishes you a pleasant stay in the heart of the valley.

Built on the confluence of the Fier and the Nom, the town of Thônes (650 m altitude) has for a long time been the administrative, cultural, and economic center of the valley of Thônes-Val Sulens. Agriculture plays a dynamic role because of the production and marketing of Reblochon, the famous cheese whose production is based around Thônes, it is also renowned for other cheeses such as Chevrotin des Aravis and Tomme and smoked mountain hams.


 
 

 

La Clusaz

Has a variety of skiing opportunities at 1100 m to 2600 m, with a range of slopes and levels of difficulty, a warm welcome from the locals and the charm of a traditional village which is hundreds of years old. It is also the birth place of world champion skiers.

 
 

 

Le Grand Bornand


Nestled at the foot of the Aravis mountain chain, it is a mountain village in harmony with its environment and a ski station which offers all forms of slide sports in a natural beauty spot. The alpine ski resorts are accessible from the village of Le Grand-Bornand (altitude 1000 m) or Le Grand-Bornand Chinaillon (altitude 1300 m), and are linked at Mont Lachat (altitude 2100 m). The Bouchet valley is a favourite place for cross country skiing with a slope which joins up with Les Confins. Meanwhile a more athletic circuit is situated next to the characteristically old village of Chinaillon.


 
 

 

Manigod

An exceptional community where tradition enriches the open air and emotions and passions grow like the mountains. Wooden chalets covered with shingles, chapels and oratories all reflect the history of the village. Ideal for family skiing with access from Merdassier or la Croix Fry and everything is at hand: down hill slopes which are linked to those at La Clusaz, cross country skiing, walking on snow shoes... The village with its traditional valley which is both beautiful and calm is well worth visiting.

 
 

 

Saint Jean de Sixt

This little corner of the Aravis mountains which is nestled at the heart of the chain, 3km from La Clusaz or Le Grand Bornand, invites you to make the most of mountain life. An ideal place to get together with family or friends, it is also a great place of discovery. Its ski slopes for beginners offer a low cost introduction to skiing. Snow shoe walking and cross country skiing enable you to experience the area's natural beauty.

 

Le Reblochon - A.O.C Cheese

Reblochon fermier is made in Thônes and in the valleys of the Aravis mountain chain from local farmers' alpine milk. A green label is placed on each cheese to guaranty that it isan authentic farm produced cheese.

Each farm has handed down its recipe from generation to generation making each farm produced cheese a little different. Reblochon with a red label is made industrially from non locally sourced milk. Milk for reblochon only comes from 3 races of cows l'Abondance, la Tarine and la Montbéliarde, but mainly from l'Abondance as they have the highest quality mountain milk.

The cows feed only on grass and hay and never silage. In June the cows are let out into the Alpine pastures and return to the farm in the autumn for the winter and the agricultural fairs.
