Get your snow boots, break out those skis and practice some moves – the 2010/2011 ski season is just around the corner. But with hundreds of destinations to choose from, where is the best place to buy a French Ski property?

Up-to-date data from leading holiday rental site, HomeAway Holiday-Rentals, investors seeking high rental yields should consider the Three Valleys which boasts the highest average weekly rental rate for a 2 bedroom chalet of £1,200.

Although only ranking 4th most popular resort within the French Alps by the amount of enquiries, the Three Valleys, home to the prestigious ski resorts of Les Menuires, Courchevel and Meribel, trumps neighbouring Portes du Soleil, Les Arcs and Tignes Sainte Foy where average rental incomes are only £1,130, £970 and £960 per week respectively.

Ed Scott, French Ski property expert and ski enthusiast at Experience International, remarked,

“It’s not hard to see why chalets in Three Valleys are so attractive to many people. It’s the largest ski area in the world with in excess of 600km of ski slopes, 120km for cross-country skiing and 183 ski lifts. With a high elevation of 3,230m, and very reliable snowfall but just in case there are 1,920 snow cannons in place.”

The resort of Les Menuires, located in the Belleville valley of Les Trois Vallées, in particular provides French ski property owners strong rental yields. Located at an altitude of 1,850m, the vibrant resort enjoys a long ski season thus maximising your rental time. Most ski slopes begin or end close to the town creating a friendly and lively atmosphere in the restaurants and piste-side bars and the resort is also popular with the French as well as international visitors.

One new development called Les Chalets du Doron, with its beautiful riverside location, has provided some of the most sought after French ski properties for sale. Comprising two individual chalets, the charming French Alps property architecture will reflect the traditions of the region and blend with the natural stunning Alpine landscape. The ski lift is located less than a 10 minute walk enabling quick access to the ski slopes.

Only a couple of luxury chalets remain at Les Chalets du Doron from €780,000 for a 2/3 bed and €1,250,000 for a 3/4 bed.
