A gondola, telemix and two fast 6-seater chairs serve a varied ski area directly above the resort village of Pra Loup.
These are nicely tree-lined, so are excellent in bad weather, and snowmaking investment has really improved snow reliability in recent years. From the summit of Le Lac, there are long runs down to Les Angneliers, opening up the rest of the Espace Lumiere and the runs over towards the linked resort of Foux_d’Allos. Just be aware that most of the lifts required to get you over there are slow, so on a cold windy day make sure you wrap up warm.
The village itself is well located right at the foot of the slopes, with all accommodation, bars and restaurants forming a horseshoe shape in the trees by the lift stations. This means you’re rarely more than a minute or two from the lifts in the morning, making Pra Loup a very family-friendly option. There is also the satellite village of Les Molanes, which offers up some further options, plus lift access via a gondola to the slopes. Getting here does take a while however, with transfers from either Nice or Lyon taking around 4 hours.

Snow Overview
France
Updated 30/12
The New Year dawns bright, dry and sunny as high pressure remains over much of Europe during this time. This changes rapidly as the weekend begins, with large flows of low pressure and cold air moving in from the East. This will bring excellent snow totals to much of the French Alps.
Snow will begin on Friday with around 20cm down. This will then increase to up to 1m down over higher ground, snow continuing into Sunday with another 15cm forecast. The freezing line will rise to around 2,000m throughout this period however snowfall is expected to reach lower down the hill too.
This snow will fall on a persistent weak layer and layers of facets within the snowpack that have already triggered avalanches over the festive period. Expect the avalanche warning to rise greatly in the coming days, and the snowpack to take a long time to settle – plan all back country travel and check your local avalanche forecast before heading out.
Snowfall is expected to continue in the new week after a brief flurry of sunshine on Monday, with temperatures plummeting as the freezing line hits below sea level.
