About Auron
Auron is a ski resort in the Tinée valley with 43 runs: 3 green, 17 blue, 15 red and 8 black, so intermediates get the most out of it. The Pinatelle cable car links Auron to Saint-Étienne-de-Tinée in about six minutes, and by road the two are 7 km apart. Off the pistes there is an ice rink, indoor climbing, cross-country skiing and themed snowshoe outings. The homes sit together in the resort rather than along the valley, and all have a sauna. Outside the ski season, check which lifts, shops and restaurants are open before you travel.
