Nordic style
.
The Nordic style is now a real way of life, making its mark all the way into the hidden valleys of Le Grand-Bornand. Le Grand-Bornand is one of the top French ski resorts and also stands out for its 68 km of Nordic skiing slopes, where visitors can combine physical performance, the pleasure of going beyond their limits and contemplation, while enjoying the «frozen north» atmospheres in the wide open spaces of the Bouchet valley, with the Aravis mountain range above... unless they prefer the sunny slopes of Le Grand-Bornand Chinaillon.
