School Ski Trip | School Skiing Trip to Crest Voland | Part of the Espace Diamant (185km), France
click on images to enlarge
Crest Voland, part of the 180km Espace Diamant fully linked resorts, offers doorstep or 'ski in and ski out' in all of the 321ski accommodation options. The ski area is virtually unheard of in British circles, despite being a popular destination for the French. The result? Ideal accommodation options with less crowded slopes, less lift queues and a very 'true' French ski experience between stunning traditional villages.
321ski's schools choose to ski purely on the local 'Crest Voland' skipass (95km) or the extended Espace Diamant (185km - at a supplement).
The extended 'Espace Diamant' skipass includes a collection of 5 French linked villages: Crest Voland, Flumet, Les Saisies, Notre Dame de Bellecombe and Praz sur Arly. This covers a total of 185km across 226 individual pistes in some of France's most stunning areas, both above and below the treeline.
Most schools find Crest Voland's 95km of groomed piste perfectly adequate for a week's skiing, and all schools benefit from being able to ski straight back to their hotels.
Although the pistes are geared toward beginner (140 pistes) and intermediate (70 pistes), advanced skiers can look forward to tackling 16 black pistes over the week - plenty more than most resorts in themselves.
