Araches-la-Frasse

Tucked into the northern French Alps above the Arve valley, Araches-la-Frasse is a place whose character is shaped by steep mountain terrain and the changing seasons of the Grand Massif. The commune includes Les Carroz, a mountain resort with a village-based atmosphere, and Flaine, a purpose-built resort noted for its modernist architecture. Developed in the 1960s, Flaine includes key buildings by Bauhaus-associated architect Marcel Breuer, while public artworks by figures including Jean Dubuffet give its pedestrian centre a distinct identity. Summer shifts attention from ski slopes to alpine paths and lift-accessed terrain. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Haute-Savoie.
