Based on the resort's altitude and historical snow reliability
Auron offers 135 km of well-marked runs, a medium-sized ski area ideal for spending 4 to 5 days without ever skiing exactly the same thing twice. The 22 lifts are generally sufficient to handle the crowds in high season. Auron's family reputation is well deserved: dedicated beginner areas, a well-run childcare service, well-groomed green runs and a friendly atmosphere at the foot of the lifts. It is one of the most reassuring resorts in the Southern Alps for laying the foundations of skiing with children. Auron's altitude (1,600 m at the base, 2,450 m at the top) helps it maintain decent snow reliability in midwinter. January and February are the most reliable months; in December and March, it is worth checking conditions before finalising a booking. The day lift pass at €34 remains reasonable for the quality of the ski area on offer. Counting accommodation, skiing and meals, Auron suits those who want a good week without the final bill knocking them off their chair. In short, Auron keeps its promises: a Southern Alps resort that will suit most profiles without disappointing.
