La Balme mountain is considered a freeriding paradise.

La Clusaz was one of the first resorts to grant boarders access to all areas and introduce terrain features. La Balme mountain is considered a freeriding paradise with numerous cliffs, big carving slopes and drop-offs, especially on the far Combe de Bellachet side. Candide Thovex, current freestyle champion, hails from La Clusaz and ensures that the freestyle spirit thrives here with a full calendar of events each winter.

Snowboarding is popular in La Clusaz and it is relatively easy to get around the resort. Although there are still a lot of drag-lifts, most are avoidable. Boarders and freestylers can check out the terrain-park and half-pipe on l’Aiguille and the separate boardercross course.
