Here, the winter mildness is real!

In winter, are you hesitating between the snow in a family resort and the mild temperatures of the seaside? Here there is no choice to be made, in an hour and a half’s drive, you can reach Camp d’Argent, a family-friendly ski resort for beginners, with its sledge run which is very popular with children, or Castérino for ski touring.
