Skiing in Val-d'Isère: an unforgettable ski holiday in the heart of the most beautiful landscapes of the French Alps
This internationally renowned French ski resort is located at an altitude of 1,850 meters in the heart of the Savoie region, within the Vanoise National Park, in the Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes region. Known for its high-quality services, the resort offers a range of accommodations and services that meet the most specific and demanding expectations. Its location is ideal: on the border with Italy and next to some of the world's leading winter sports resorts. For every skier, amateur or professional, Val-d'Isère has become an essential ski destination in just a few decades.
The resort attracts skiers from all over the world thanks to the exceptional quality of its services and its majestic alpine scenery. The snow conditions and the size of the Val d'Isère ski area make it one of the world's leading ski destinations (300 km of slopes shared with the Tignes resort in the "Espace Killy" area and 82 ski lifts).
Ski holidays in Val-d'Isère: come and discover the most beautiful off-piste ski routes in the world!
Its ski area, encompassing both groomed and off-piste terrain, covers over 17,500 hectares, offering just as much wilderness. Its highest point, at 3,456 meters, allows for a spectacular vertical drop of approximately 2,000 meters. The excellence of its off-piste areas and the quality of its powder snow have made it a top destination for freeride touring enthusiasts .
From your guest house or hotel, we offer you the option of setting off either directly on skins for 100% natural ascents, or by gravity, at the arrival of the ski lifts, to reach off-piste ski routes more quickly in higher altitude areas, such as Le Tour du Charvet or La Banane starting from the Bellevarde sector.

Le Tour du Charvet :
Technique 1/3
Physics 1/3
Elevation gain: 0 m
Elevation gain: 900 m
Exposure: South to East
The Banana lives up to its name. On a day of heavy powder snow, after 800 m of descent in the axis and several dozen turns on a sustained slope, the lucky ones who have drawn these lines generally see it right in front of them, the Banana!
Technique 3/3
Physics 1/3
Elevation gain: 0 m
Elevation gain: 800 m
Exhibition: East
We also offer heli-skiing excursions to reach even higher altitudes around the Tarentaise Valley. After being dropped off, you can enjoy descents in pristine powder, surrounded by breathtaking mountain panoramas, before returning to the village.
Depending on your preferences, we can offer full-day excursions where you can bring a picnic lunch. However, if you'd prefer to stop at one of the resort's restaurants, or even a mountain restaurant closer to the slopes, we'll suggest equally fantastic half-day itineraries.
