Skiing in Sixt Fer à Cheval

Sixt Fer à Cheval (Grand Massif), France (765m to 2200m)

Pretty old village on the Grand Massif but not actually lift-linked to it. Once you've taken the bus to the bottom station you can ski back down to Sixt. There are long standing plans to build a lift back up to cut out the bus journey.
