Swiss Alps

Are you thinking about heading somewhere completely different for your next incredible vacation? If so, then you might want to consider visiting the French Alps. Every year, millions of people head over to France to explore this fascinating, breathtaking environment. There are countless places to explore beyond what you might typically expect. In fact, I think no matter what type of traveler you are there’s going to be something everyone can enjoy deep in the French Alps. If you are ready to discover it for yourself, take a look at the list below, I don’t think you’ll be disappointed.

Luxury Accommodations

If you are planning on taking a trip to the Alps we definitely think you should explore the luxury standard ski chalets. While luxury suggests complete comfort, standard makes you think that maybe the price won’t be that high and you’re right on both accounts. These chalets will fit into the typical holiday budget and you’re certain to love what you discover when you stay. For instance, it’s possible to spend one evening enjoying a relaxing spa treatment. This is just what you need after a long day on the slopes. Even if you haven’t been skiing at all, you’ll still love spending time in the spa, that’s for sure. Another evening, you can enjoy your own private cinema room! Yes, there’s plenty to do, even if you decide that you don’t actually want to leave your chalet and instead want to lavish in luxury.

Grotte de Glace

If you’re looking to be dazzled and delighted while spending time in the Alps, then we certainly recommend that you explore this labyrinth of ice caves and passages. You can spend at least an hour wandering through gazing at the beautiful and remarkable walls. The cave is actually altered every year due to the shifts in the glacial landscape. Even the experience of getting to the cave is quite incredible. You have to take a small train before heading high up in a cable car to reach this beautiful and completely unique tourist attraction. You won’t have to spend a fortune to enter either, making it perfect for anyone visiting the Alps on a budget. It’s regularly at the top of the list of things to do for people who don’t want to spend their time skiing.

Cable Cars

There are cable cars here that will take you high into the mountains and provide you with the perfect photo opportunities, sure to take your breath away. Slow moving, these provide a gentle ride and plenty of opportunities to see the Alps like never before.

The views are incredible, the scenery is exquisite and while some of the paths can be quite challenging, they also provide a fantastic reward any biker will surely adore. Again, this is certainly an option suitable for those who are still finding their feet on the pedals.

As you can see there are countless incredible experiences awaiting you in the Alps. You might think that a vacation like this is going to be beyond your budget, but don’t be so sure. While it might be true that the French Alps used to be for the rich and the one percent, times have changed. They are more accessible than ever and it’s quite possible that you will be able to fit this holiday into your budget. Particularly, if you choose to head over during the off-peak season where the land is just as beautiful and the slopes are less crowded.
