Skiers will have to put out their Gauloises and snuff their pipes now that a smoking ban has come into force at a French resort.
As of December 17 the ski area and ski lifts of Les Gets in Haute Savoie became smoke free, in a bid to reduce litter on the mountain.
In 2022, more than 3,000 cigarette butts were collected on the ski area and in the village during the Montagne Propre mass litter pick day alone.
