Before Combloux became a skiing resort, it was a traditional mountainous village with the main economy being made from farming which still exists today. It has stone and wooden chalets for accommodation and besides the residents, chalets are also an option for tourists. The village has expanded quickly recently. Combloux has been described as
La perle du mont Blanc ("The pearl of the Mont Blanc") as a full view of the
Mont Blanc is ever present. Combloux also has the first ecological lake for swimmers in France, open in summer and heated by the sun. ==Population==
