Ski lifts at the ski resort Le Grand Massif – Flaine/Les Carroz/Morillon/Samoëns/Sixt

High-performance gondola lifts take you from the valley up into the ski area. There is a good mix of modern, fast lifts and older Poma platter lifts. However, you don't have to use the older lifts to reach your destination. Unfortunately, there are no lifts with weather protection hoods or heated seats.
