About
Quick facts: Skate at 1,035 meters, where the thin, crisp air makes every lap feel faster and colder than lowland rinks. Ice here carried hockey matches for the inaugural 1924 Winter Olympics, and the hometown Pionniers squad still battles in France's top league today.
Highlights: On race nights, cowbells clang from the stands so loud you feel the vibration travel up through the freshly flooded ice beneath your blades. Between periods, fans step onto the terrace to warm their mitts and watch the highest granite peaks turn rose-gold, then sprint back before the resurfacer finishes.
Insider tips
- Wear thick socks and gloves, as temperatures inside are cold all year round
- Go early in the morning on weekends to avoid the afternoon crowds
- Bring your camera, because the evening lights create spectacular photos with the mountains in the background
- If you are a beginner, look for skate assistance sessions offered a few days a week
