Location
On a sunny hillside in the village of Les Frasserands, close to the popular resort of Argentière, this apartment is conveniently close to the ski lifts, shuttle buses and slopes. For beginners, the slopes at La Vormaine are just a 3-minute drive. For more experienced skiers the Tour Col de Balme slopes are also close by. Some of the higher pistes around Argentière offer skiing later in the season, sometimes right up to early May.

During the summer the valley is packed with activities from hiking and mountain biking to mountaineering, horse riding, white-water rafting, paragliding, tennis and golf.

Argentière (3 minutes drive) has many of the amenities that visitors need, including restaurants and a supermarket. The weekly market, where you can find the very best local ingredients, takes place every Sunday morning.

Geneva airport is a 1 hour 25 minute drive from the house.
