Aiguille de Borderan above La Clusaz

Nordic cluster

Haute-Savoie cluster: Le Grand-Bornand and La Clusaz

Biathlon at Le Grand-Bornand and cross-country, including para Nordic, at La Clusaz. They are neighbours, not one ski area.

  1. Two resorts, not one domain

Haute-Savoie, for these Games, means two Aravis resorts. Le Grand-Bornand has the biathlon. La Clusaz has the cross-country, and the Paralympic biathlon and para cross-country. Alpine skiing is not here. Courchevel is in Savoie, even when an older Olympics.com page filed a Paralympic alpine line under a Haute-Savoie heading.

Two resorts, not one domain

You cannot ski from La Clusaz to Le Grand-Bornand on a lift. La Clusaz's own nordic centre at Les Confins does publish a 7 km link to the Le Grand-Bornand nordic tracks. That is a cross-country connection, not an alpine one, and the organising committee has not published a sentence that says the races will be held on that exact track. The public assignment is the resort name.

Les Saisies, over the hill in the Beaufortain, hosted Nordic events in 1992. It is not on the 2030 map.

La Clusaz publishes 125 km of alpine pistes, 49 lifts, and 86 runs between 1,100 m and 2,600 m, measured the way Domaines Skiables de France recommends. The alpine skiing is for a holiday. The Games events here are on the nordic side. Geneva is the usual airport. Details are on the La Clusaz and Le Grand-Bornand pages.
