Crest-Voland is a tiny old Savoyard village with lifts on the doorstep; most lodging is in the village, a short walk or ski from the snow-front.
Crest-Voland sits in the Beaufortain near the head of the Val d'Arly, a tiny stone-and-wood village ringed by farms, lift-linked over the hill into the 192 km Espace Diamant alongside Les Saisies, Notre-Dame-de-Bellecombe, Flumet and Praz-sur-Arly. The skiing is mostly gentle, sunny and forested, ideal for families and improvers, and the views toward Mont Blanc are some of the best in the northern Alps. Discreet and low-key, it is one of the genuinely authentic, well-priced bases left in fashionable Savoie.
