Intermediate skiers will find Les Granges to be a suitable destination with a good mix of blue and red pistes. The resort offers a variety of terrains, including the challenging red runs around the Les Granges chairlift, which are known for their consistent snow cover. Additionally, the resort's location provides access to neighboring regions with more extensive and varied slopes, offering a wealth of opportunities for intermediate skiers to enhance their skills.

Les Granges may not be the best fit for advanced skiers. The resort primarily caters to beginners and intermediates, with a majority of its slopes being green and blue.

Les Granges may not be the first choice for freeriders as it lacks the extensive off-piste terrain found in larger resorts.
