Because of it's altitude and dry climate, good skiing conditions exist from December to May. Ice is unheard of and light powder can be found right up to the end of the season. The slopes face south, west, and north giving the skier a constant variety from which to choose the best sun and snow.
The Valley of La Maurienne has recently been opened and will provide the possibility to ski from 9000'down to 4200'. It is a beautiful, southwest facing area with some powder skiing. Great for the intermediate and expert.
Val Thorens is the youngest resort of the 3 Valleys network, and has developed a high quality image in keeping with the areas other famous resorts. The accommodations are in modern buildings constructed in the Savoyard style. All hotels offer direct access to the slopes. From the hotel, back to the hotel -- what more could a skier want?
Apres ski life is active and varied with activities from ice skating and tennis to indoor golf and swimming. Of course, the ever present discos rock till the wee hours for those inclined to take a day off. Nine mountain restaurants offer you the chance to savor the local fare such as fondue and raclette. Adventurous skiers can even take an evening torchlit descent from some of the chalet-style mountain inns. The local ski school will give you a wide range of possibilities, from guided tours of the 3 Valleys to initiation in cross-country, ballet, monoboard, snow surfing, and Norwegian style Telemark to regular lessons.
In recent years, Val Thorens has become a traffic free resort adding to the beauty of the views, fresh clean mountain air! We highly recommend this resort for the person wishing to complete a week of skiing.
