Geneva, land of banks, cuckoo clocks and a gem of a local resort known as Monts-Jura. Often overlooked by foreigners, the resort is made up of the Mijoux and Lélex-Crozet villages with 50km of mixed pistes, all under an hour from Geneva airport. Plus it’s slightly cheaper than the nearby Portes du Soleil resorts.
