La Chapelle d'Abondance (1020 m a.s.l.) and the neighboring Abondance (930 m a.s.l.) is a perfect area for beginners. For more advanced skiers, it can be a good base for more difficult areas of Les Portes du Soleil. Using the Le Tromby lift, you can get to Torgon and Châtel, from where we gain access to the largest ski area in the region.
