Flaine, France
Big skiing with a Bauhaus backbone
Set at 1,600m in a natural snow bowl, Flaine is built for easy skiing rather than unnecessary faff. Its pedestrian, ski-in/ski-out centre gives direct access to the 265km Grand Massif, while Marcel Breuer’s modernist architecture gives the resort a character unlike anywhere else in the French Alps.
