Listen Later

With the summer coming to a close and the festive season on the horizon, we want to whisk you away to the enchanting world of Christmas in the French Alps. Imagine waking up to a winter wonderland on Christmas morning, surrounded by snow-covered mountains and charming alpine villages. The French Alps truly come alive during this magical time of year, with fairytale-like Christmas markets, beautifully decorated streets, and twinkling lights that add an extra sparkle to the season. Join us in this latest episode of the Alpine Property Podcast, where we explore why spending Christmas in a ski resort is an experience like no other. Enjoy tuning in!


Key Takeaways

  • Stunning Winter Wonderland. With the best snowfall in the coldest months, December and January, the French Alps offer picturesque powder-covered slopes from sunrise to sunset. Higher altitude resorts like Val d'Isere and Tignes guarantee a white Christmas, but even lower-lying resorts can be blessed with the true magic of Christmas. Imagine waking up to a winter paradise on Christmas morning!
  • Double the Festivities. In the French Alps, Christmas is celebrated on both the 24th and 25th of December, allowing you to enjoy not just one, but two festive celebrations. After parades, fireworks, and a visit from Santa, you can hit the slopes on Christmas morning before indulging in a delicious Christmas lunch. Ski resorts' restaurants offer a range of traditional Savoie dishes, including fondue and raclette, ensuring a memorable culinary experience.
  • Stress-Free Christmas. Escape the hustle and bustle of the commercialised Christmas season and enjoy a stress-free holiday in the Alps. Leave behind the frantic supermarket shopping and the hours spent in the kitchen. Instead, relax with your family as you glide down the slopes, taking in the spectacular views and breathing in the fresh mountain air. Ski resorts go all out to create a festive atmosphere, with Christmas markets, parades, carol singing, and even visits from Santa himself!
