About Skiing in France

France has 29 published ski resorts in the SkiGrade database. The largest by vertical drop is Chamonix-Mont-Blanc with 2807m of vertical drop. Click into any state for the full list of resorts and stats, or click a resort name for a full breakdown including terrain mix, elevation profile, and side-by-side comparisons.

All stats shown are based on published resort data. Vertical drop is the most reliable indicator of overall mountain size, since it tells you how long a top-to-bottom run actually is. Snowfall figures are annual averages and can vary significantly year to year. Terrain percentages (beginner, intermediate, advanced) reflect how each resort categorises its own marked trails.
