The small ski resort in the Alpes-Maritimes is about to be renamed Gr\u00e9oli\u00e8res 1400, a decision that has not gone down well with the locals. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

It's now official: Gr\u00e9oli\u00e8res-les-Neiges is to be renamed Gr\u00e9oli\u00e8res 1400, a decision taken by the commune's mayor, who is aware of the lack of snow his resort could face in a few years' time as a result of climate change. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"If we keep the name and there's no more snow, we'll look thin. We need to show that we want to transform the ski resort into a resort that is open all year round, that doesn't just rely on the snow product\".<\/em>explained Marc Malfatto. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the more nostalgic will still be able to see the wording \"les Neiges\" in small print, from now on Gr\u00e9oli\u00e8res 1400 will be displayed everywhere. A decision that is far from shared by all the residents. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Contacted by telephone, a shopkeeper told us that a petition could be launched. According to him, the decision was taken without consultation, at the sole whim of the municipality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Gr\u00e9oli\u00e8res 1400 relies on four-season tourism <\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A Gr\u00e9olois for three generations, this restaurateur believes that the name change sends out the wrong signal for tourism in the resort. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

This news was originally due to be announced in the spring as part of a major communications campaign, but ended up being made official more quickly following leaks. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Sophia Antipolis Agglomeration Community resort is now focusing on four-season tourism, a necessity for all ski resorts, as Julien Lizeroux told us<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

With its chairlift open during the summer, this resort in the Alpes-Maritimes intends to develop mountain biking, in addition to its tree climbing park and a rail sledging project which could soon see the light of day. <\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
