Le
Mont Dore is a well equiped winter sports resort. There is a free coach
service (navette) from various places around the town (inluding our
accomodation) to the Nordic and Alpine ski areas.
With
a large ski school offered by ESF
it makes Le Mont Dore an ideal place to learn to ski or improve your
technique.
Another
great feature of the Alpine ski area is the availability of lift passes
allowing the purchase of
weekly, 5 day non-consevutive, daily, half day and quarter day passes.
