All this despite an expected slight rise in the price of ski passes, of the order of an additional 6 to 7%. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In the past, French and foreign skiers were used to hitting the slopes for the first time this year during the All Saints' holiday. <a href=\"https:\/\/petit-montagnard.fr\/en\/these-resorts-where-you-can-ski-in-summer-in-france\/\">on the glaciers of Tignes and les 2 Alpes<\/a>This will not be the case again this year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Resorts at altitudes of over 1850 m are all the rage <\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The fault lies with the temperatures, which are not providing optimum snow conditions. To date, the major ski areas at altitudes of over 1850 metres have recorded +4% in additional bookings, all periods combined. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The other stations, on the other hand, were down by 3.5%, according to data from the G2A institute, which supplies data to the<a href=\"https:\/\/www.anmsm.fr\/publicationsdata\/observatoire-des-stations-de-montagne-osm#:~:text=Cr%C3%A9%C3%A9%20en%202001%2C%20l&#039;Observatoire,des%20entreprises%20du%20Sport%20et\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">National Observatory of Mountain Resorts<\/a> (OSM).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>SEE ALSO :<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/petit-montagnard.fr\/en\/video-discovering-abandoned-ski-resorts\/\">VIDEO.
