France

France, as Europe’s largest country, has a varied geography, from long coastal stretches to mountain ranges to central regions with dominating river valleys. These all influence climatic conditions.
Winters in mountain regions bring snow – especially for the snow resorts in the Alps and the Pyrennes in the west. Summer in these regions though, is usually warm and sunny.
In the west, showers can occur throughout the year but the sunniest part of the country is typically along the Mediterranean coast, with hot, dry summers and cool, comfortable winter temperatures.
France offers plenty of attractions throughout the year. Summer is naturally a popular time to take advantage of France’s waterways and rural attractions but winter will see less crowds and is a perfect time to consider skiing in some of Europe’s best ski fields. This is also a time when rates can be lower.
