We've been skiing in Flumet for the last 4 years now. While the town itself is small with little in the way of apres-ski entertainment, the fields themselves are a revelation. The Espace Diament covers approximately 185 kms of piste of varying levels of difficulty. While true black runs are limited, the area is a true playground for off-piste lovers, especially after a good dump of the white stuff, and offers something for everyone. Being a relative unknown is also a significant advantage - we went at the beginning of the year and the runs were virtually empty, unlike the crowded madness of the larger resorts. All this for barely half the cost of the more popular ski runs makes Flumet and the surrounding areas a good punt.
