Le Grand Bornand Reviews

A very nice mid-mountain resort. Impressive snowparks, Border-Cross, etc. A few challenging black runs, good intermediate and beginner slopes. Honestly, they try hard and the prices are reasonable. Sometimes the snow struggles to hold up at the bottom of the slopes, but it's comparable to similar high-altitude resorts like Portes du Soleil.

• Impressive snowpark, and the view
• Not into après-ski

The ski area is large and varied enough for the whole family, and the slopes are well connected. The village is charming.

• Good correlation between the color and the difficulty of the trails. Nice wide trails.

A very pleasant resort which has retained its charm but which is a victim of its own success during school holidays.

• A pretty, lively, rural, and authentic village. Comprehensive and free bus network (connecting to La Clusaz). Dynamic Tourist Office. Le Borne
• Large queues at the lifts.

Great resort, very well-maintained slopes. There could be more runs on the Col des Annes side. There are green runs for beginners, which is rare for resorts in the Alps.

• Ski lockers under the gondola, two gondolas to filter the crowds, shuttle to get back home.
• Lack of mini ski lifts, like the Lachat chairlift to the Rosay gondola where you have to walk back up.

We love the resort; it just lacks evening entertainment and food options, especially takeaway. The people we met, whether at the tourist office, the ski instructors, or in some of the shops, were very pleasant. Thank you.

• The ski area is great. The village is beautiful.
• The prices are high, especially going up. There's a lack of food options and evening entertainment.

The senior/4-hour pass is very expensive compared to the full-day pass. When you reach a certain age, you can't ski all day anymore! Too bad, I'll go to a smaller resort.

• Large ski area with varied slopes, snowpark for young people, free shuttle buses to the car parks
• Not enough blue runs and slow Terre Rouge and Floria chairlifts

Amazing!

A superb resort, magnificent views, very welcoming locals, and a wide variety of activities. A family-friendly resort with charming chalets—no concrete! Dog-friendly without a doubt. Definitely worth revisiting in the summer.

• A diverse and extensive range of options to suit all tastes.
• It's not gentle madness

A ski area spread across two slopes, allowing you to ski depending on the sun. There's something for everyone and every level (from beginner to expert). Freestyle enthusiasts won't be disappointed either, with one of the best snowparks I've ever seen. The resort is beautiful. The area offers the potential for fantastic freeride lines for ski mountaineering and ski touring enthusiasts. There's no uncontrolled development. Only wooden chalets, giving it real charm and a family village feel. Access to the gondola at 1000m is difficult in the morning. It gets very crowded. Going up to 1400m is a better option, with parking right at the foot of the slopes (Floria chairlift). A superb resort in the Aravis mountains, not to be missed.

• A large and accessible ski area. A huge snowpark. No high-rise buildings.
• Average altitude at the base of the slopes. Be aware of years with little snow. The resort is fully equipped with snow cannons.

We always have a great time at this very family-friendly resort!

• A very desirable area
