Aiguille du Midi in Mont BlancPeople don't automatically think of France as a hot spot for winter sports and picturesque snow scenes, but this is a Mecca for lovers of snow. France has both the Pyrenees and the Alps, both ranges of which become winter wonderlands each year.

Thanks! I think people forget what a great destination France is in winter (it isn’t just about Paris in the springtime! heheh). There are tons of great winter activities there. And the scenery is beautiful, as you mentioned.
