Skiing in the French Alps usually comes with a high price tag.<br />But this winter, one alpine village is offering skiing completely free.<br /><br />In Saint-Colomban-des-Villards, a small ski resort in the French Alps, lift passes cost nothing not as a promotion but as a last resort to survive. After decades of financial losses, unreliable snowfall, and rising costs, the town made a shocking decision. Charging skiers would actually cost more than letting everyone ski for free.<br /><br />This video explains why the resort stopped selling lift passes, how climate change is reshaping alpine tourism, and what this bold experiment could mean for the future of mountain villages across Europe.<br /><br />It’s a story about money, snow, survival, and reinvention in the Alps.<br />Watch till the end to see why free skiing might be the start of something much bigger.<br />WooGlobe Ref : WGA304838<br />For licensing and to use this video, please email licensing@wooglobe.com
