Val d'Isère Ski Resort

This resort is considered by many to be the world’s premier ski resort, Val d’Isère is hard to fault, offering some of the best skiing anywhere together with exciting and lively après ski. The village dates back to the 13th century and the Espace Killy has 97 ski lifts whisking you in all directions up to heights of over 3500m, including the Le Fornet glacier, guaranteeing snow.

Beginners Star

Don’t get the idea that Val d’Isère is for experts only! Far from it - there are several good nursery slopes and a number of lifts which are absolutely free for skiing beginners!

Intermediates StarStar

A true intermediates paradise, Val d’Isère is big-time skiing country. From the gentle cruising blue and red runs of the Bellevarde and La Daille sectors to the Le Fornet glacier and the massive ski domain of Tignes and La Grand Motte, there is endless choice at every level.

Advanced StarStar

Val d’Isère must be included in every list of the best skiing in Europe for its giant moguls, steep black runs, couloirs and not least for its sensational off-piste. Try the Olympic Men’s Downhill run, the waist-high Solaise bumps just above the village or the powder bowls of the Tour de Charvet.

Snowboarding Star

This area really does have it all, it is one of the best playgrounds in Europe no matter what you want with a boardpark and Freeriding that doesn't get any better, on or off-piste.
