Intermediate skiers are very well serviced. A huge range of runs spread across 4 major resorts all covered on the one lift pass.

There is not much of an apres-ski scene in Brides Les Bains but there are a few bars if you want a drink or two once you have got the bubbles lift down at the end of the day. The non-apres-ski activity in Brides Les Bains is hitting the spa, after all Brides Les Bains is traditionally a spa town rather than a ski resort. However, if you are looking for something a bit different then why not hit the local Casino for a bit of a flutter!
