Risoul
Due to the geographical location and the excellent snow history of La Forêt Blanche that connects Risoul with Vars, snow security is guaranteed from mid-December to the end of April. While you are here in the southern Alps, you can enjoy more than 300 days of sunshine per year. More than 185km of slopes await you here for endless skiing and snowboarding fun. At the start of your exploration of the entire ski area, you will soon understand how to quickly move from one mountain slope to another, in particular how to easily return from Vars to Risoul, paying attention to the closing times of the connecting lifts.
Ski area La Forêt Blanche
Seven snow parks, two boarder crosses, a slalom track, a KL slope, two natural toboggan runs, a rail toboggan run “Luge Dévale”, and the Night Park where you can ski at night… Your heart will automatically beat faster!
Fancy going off-piste? Not far from the lifts you will find the nicest areas with a thick layer of white powder ready to leave your mark in the middle of nature. Cross country ski or Freeride down the mountain with a beautiful view.
We have found the perfect spot to get cosy after a day of snowy wipeouts, and after questionable apres-ski choices. Together we will stay in the newly renovated apartment building of Yoonly & Friends at the foot of the snowy slopes.
7 nights in 5-person apartments with more luxury than your Progress tent could ever offer.
You can share this snow-covered home with your favourite Progress squad, or leave it to chance and see who will join your apartment. Who knows, they might turn out to be your partner-in-crime for the snow trip of your dreams.
Résidence & Hostel Yoonly & Friends is located in the heart of Risoul 1850 and has direct access to the ski area via a ski slope and the “Pelinche” ski lift.
Shops and services are about 300 meters away.
The residence is made up of 63 apartments spread over 7 floors, direct access to the ski locker, a co-living space with its “Kitchen&Friends”, bar/restaurant with a terrace, a gaming area and a cocooning area.
On the ground floor, the YOYO space is entirely dedicated to you! You can eat, celebrate, play or relax, all in a friendly atmosphere. Take advantage of our events and themed evenings during your stay: karaoke, sports broadcasts, evenings from the 80s to today, tavern… All in all, the perfect playground for a week of shenanigans.
Progress is all about freedom. We don’t want to tell you what to do and when to do it. We will not be switching things up on you this winter. We will have some breakfast ready for you at your apartment to spend a day of adventuring in the Alps. And the rest of the day you are in charge of your meals, and when you have them.
When you wake up you will have a croissant, coffee and jus d’ orange p.p., two baguettes and a jar of topping ready in your apartment.
When it comes to lunch, it’s all up to you! Consider preparing some simple yet satisfying sandwiches or wraps that can easily be enjoyed on the go. Throw in some trail mix, fruit, and energy bars to keep your energy levels up while you explore the winter wonderland.
You create the trip you want, cheese fondue with the squad after a day of gliding down the slopes? No problem. Prefer a cooking showdown at the apartment? You’ve got it.
We would love to invite you for a group dinner with drinks at the beginning of the week to get to know each other before we dive headfirst into a week of madness. This dinner is included in the deal!
And as if that wasn’t enough, we are throwing a free Progress party night. This night is all about having a wild Progress-style party and creating some memories that will have future you questioning things. We’ll be serving up the frostiest drinks and the hottest tunes, and will make sure that this night is as unforgettable as your days on the snow.
We love the mountains and we love nature. And although we cannot solve the world problems, at least we can try to help. That’s why we’ve partnered up with Eden Reforestation Projects and are happy to be able to donate 10 trees for each booking of our snowtrip!
Furthermore we encourage everyone to travel together. If you don’t know yet how to get to La Plagne, please contact us and we will try to help you to find a travel buddy(buddies). If there are many people in need of transport we could arrange a bus, so please let us know if you are interested in this!
