Villages

Situated in the heart of the valley, the village of Saint Jean d'Aulps has inherited its name from the old French word for "alpage" meaning high mountain grazing land.
Thanks to its Abbey and the monks who lived there, Saint Jean d'Aulps can claim to be the ancestor of all the surrounding villages.
Those who like hiking can find here marvelous summits and combs : the Roc d'Enfer, the Graydon comb, the Roc de Tavaneuse and its lake, the Pic de la Corne and many more.
With the growth of the skiing industry, Saint Jean d'Aulps has also become an important winter sports resort, which has many natural advantages for skiers. The saint Jean d'Aulps Ski Domain has an excellent snow record, and is an integral part of the Portes du Soleil ski area.
