The ski area

Its ski area includes 55 kilometers of slopes located between 1,900 and 990 meters above sea level. Most of the slopes are through the forest, ideal for those who love skiing among the fir trees. Every skier will find suitable terrain according to their level. The resort is renowned for its slope called "La Verte des Houches," but beware, this is not a beginner slope. It is a black run, often used as a stage for the World Cup Alpine Skiing. It gets its name from the fir trees lining the 870 meters of elevation difference. From the slopes, you can easily access Saint-Gervais' slopes.

Les Houches also offers 7 km of cross-country skiing, 7 km of pedestrian trails, 7 km of snowshoe routes, and 1 snowpark. Once the snow melts, mountain biking trails are revealed in Les Houches, offering more summer-oriented descents.
