A variety of alpine fauna, flora and a vast nature reserve give Les Contamines a great natural dimension. History, art, culture, heritage and local gastronomy are the key to the alpine identity of Les Contamines and its people. In 2016, LES CONTAMINES was nominated for the category 'Family Resort of the Year' at the '2016 World Snow Awards'.
