About Les Carroz
Les Carroz sits on a sunny balcony above the Arve valley, and of the Grand Massif bases it is the one that feels most like a village people actually live in — low-key, unpretentious and popular with families who come back year after year.
A gondola from the centre climbs into the same 265 km area that Flaine and Samoëns share.
