Its ski area, with 135 km of slopes and 800 m of difference in height, is the largest in the Alpes-Maritimes department. It is spread over 4 sectors that give the impression for skiers to escape from one domain to another. In a magical setting, this mountain village is just as pleasant for après-ski with its skating rink, the heart of the station's activities, its wellness areas, its cozy evenings and establishments.
