At the top of the village of Granier, there is a beautiful Nordic area and fun zone on the slopes of the Versant du Soleil overlooking the Tarentaise valley. A real little corner of paradise for you to enjoy!
The Nordic area at Granier is the perfect place to go hiking, cross-country skiing, ski touring or on a snowshoe hike.
You can discover the unspoiled natural surroundings away from the big ski resorts and enjoy a range of activities.
Refreshments are available from the bar near the activity area or at the Auberge de Granier in the village.
1250 metres above sea level, the location consists of the main village (Granier) and the main hamlet (La Thuile). Nestled on the Beaufortain massif, it stretches over the slopes of the Versant du Soleil, overlooking the Tarentaise valley.
