FLAINE

A traffic free tree lined bowl with doorstep skiing? Let Outgoing introduce you to Flaine, in the heart of the Grand Massif ski area. Our all-inclusive residence has its own bar with a daily happy hour and nightclub with resident DJ; the perfect formula for the perfect apres ski! Other facilities in the resort include Flaines indoor heated pool, outdoor ice rink and new bowling alley. Most of the skiing is in a wide snow bowl, where all runs lead back to the village... The resort is brilliant for university ski and snowboard groups who want to maximise their time on the snow.

SKIING & SNOWBOARDING

Flaine is the gate to one of the biggest ski and snowboard areas in France, aptly named 'Le Grand Massif'. The 133 pistes are all connected, and Flaine is blessed with one of the best snow records in the French Alps. Whether you're skiing or snowboarding, prefer freeride, freestyle or carving, you'll enjoy your favourite snowsport in a magnificent setting .


Beginner

Flaine offers a good network of both green and blue runs for beginners that are easily accessible via the chair lifts. We work with a great ski school in Flaine too... so beginners are garenteed great lessons.


Intermediate

Most of the red runs in Flaine are well groomed and fairly easy. All are wide bowl shaped slopes providing perfect space for improving skills and technique. The Septimountain Jampark will also test intermediates looking to improve their freestyle skills. A large number of red runs to improve technique make Flaine great for intermediates.


Advanced

Advanced skiers will enjoy the pro jam park which provides tables, rails, quarters and kickers, as well as the 22 red runs, and 4 black Flaine has to offer. Taxing black runs include Diamond Noir, Styx and the wooded run down to Samoens. Off-piste runs are breath-taking, giving Flaine a real reputation among the experienced skiers and boarders!


Freestyle & Snowboarding

Most boarders can be found at the top of the glacier. The runs are wide, providing small steps to pop off. There's also 2 jam parks to choose from, each varying in difficulty, so you can practice your rails and jumps.


Apres Ski

We’re aware from experience that a tailored après ski is a fundamental part of your group holiday and we’ll work with you to create the ideal party programme and get the most from Flaine - there is some amazing bars and restaurants to choose from, situated in both Flaine Forum and Flaine Foret. The White pub is a favourite of ours, specialising in great live music and a happy hour each day from 4pm, but you’ll doubtlessly find there’s immodest fun to be had from what is considered a modest après ski resort. Remind yourself of this fact when you’re dancing on the tables at midnight in The Flying Dutchman..!

Our Favourite Bar and Nightclub:

  • Club Le Skifun
  • Le White Pub
  • The Flying Dutchman
  • Le Bissac
More Info

Club Le Skifun

OK so the name is cheesier than a Fondue at Eurovision, but this informal institution is never dull and is great for Club sandwiches and steaks. Probably the best coffee in resort, too!

Le White Pub

Bar-restaurant in an Irish-style pub setting. Beers from around the world, cocktails, concerts, Savoyard specialties, Internet access.

The Flying Dutchman

Raucous parties, theme evenings, beers from around Europe, snacks..and the type of contagious and lively Dutch atmosphere, which‘ll cause you to grow six inches, ordering mayonnaise with your chips,'n painting your face orange.

Le Bissac

Located at the bottom of the lift "Balacha" - Flaine Forêt. Ideal meeting point on the slopes on a friendly atmosphere.

Bespoke Apres & Events

DJ's & Bands

One of the things that we do really well is throw a party in the mountains (Snowbombing & Winter Break are Outgoing events). Talk to us about what your group is after... as we have the relationships and contacts with many major acts and agencies. So whether it is a live band, DJ or club night your group are after - we have no problem helping to arrange this as either an extra element to your holiday (resort and numbers dependant) or as a promotional night in your city.


Valley Rally

The Valley Rally is no doubt a student ski institution, one of the best days of your tour and one of the funniest days on the slopes for your group. Outgoing has run countless of them over the years - so be prepared for lots of stupidity, debauchery and a range of ridiculous challenges at the checkpoints all around the mountain! Fancy dress essential...


Meal on mountain

One of the highlights of every group ski holiday, the ‘Meal on the Mountain’ it's one the best opportunities to get your whole group together for one HUGE party and a whole lot of ‘Fromage’... These vary from resort to resort as we take over a restaurant on the mountain or in the village for a typically French fondue, with a typically student attitude – table dance anyone?


Group Race Day

For some universities racing is a very important aspect, while for others it is more about having a laugh... Whatever your motivations Outgoing can organise this for you... It will always be with run professionally with experienced staff (traditionally we do this in conjunction with the resort ski school).

We guarantee:

  • Free entry for competitors
  • No charge for race set up
