When to go on vacation in the French Alps?
The best time to go on vacation in the French Alps depends on your favorite activities. Winter, from December to March, is the ideal season for winter sports. Ski resorts are in full swing, offering pistes for all levels, with January and February generally the snowiest months.
In spring, from April to June, temperatures start to warm up and the snow gradually melts. This is an excellent time for hiking and enjoying the flower-filled countryside, while avoiding the summer crowds.
Summer, from July to August, is perfect for outdoor activities such as hiking, mountain biking and water sports on the lakes. Temperatures are pleasant and the Alpine scenery is at its best.
Finally, autumn, from September to November, offers magnificent colors as the foliage changes. It’s a quieter time for hiking and exploring the villages, although some activities begin to close as the season progresses.
