Log in to snowHeads to make it MUCH better!
Registration's totally free, of course, and makes snowHeads easier to use and to understand, gives better searching, filtering etc. as well as access to 'members only' forums, discounts and deals that U don't even know exist as a 'guest' user. (btw. 50,000+ snowHeads already know all this, making snowHeads the biggest, most active community of snow-heads in the UK, so you'll be in good company)..... When you register, you get our free weekly(-ish) snow report by email. It's rather good and not made up by tourist offices (or people that love the tourist office and want to marry it either)... We don't share your email address with anyone and we never send out any of those cheesy 'message from our partners' emails either. Anyway, snowHeads really is MUCH better when you're logged in - not least because you get to post your own messages complaining about things that annoy you like perhaps this banner which, incidentally, disappears when you log in :-)

very nice indeed. I don't see anybody swimming though.
Well, the person's real but it's just a made up name, see?

pam w
, this was taken on the way down quite early in the morning. It's at 1400m so you want to be "warmed up" before going in. On the way up we all jumped in and it was fantastic and very refreshing!
Lac De Tanay is a popular day trip as there are a couple of nice old refuges around it serving lunch and a nice 1hr walk round the lake. For the more energetic there are some good hikes up to the Grammont (2200m), Cornets de Bises (2400m) with great views of the surrounding area. I recommend it for anyone around the Swiss Riviera in the Summer.
In Winter it's possible to ski tour up and ski down the front practically into Lac Leman. Might give it a try this winter!
