The Skiing: In A Class Of Its Own
As a ski area, the Three Valleys area is simply the best. Close on a dozen seasons on and we are still discovering new places to ski. Whatever your level or whichever resort you choose the three valleys has something for everyone. Mile upon mile of perfectly pisted green, blue and red runs, beautiful tree-lined trails, bumps and couloirs for the more adventurous and all served by the most efficient lift system in the Alps. It’s no wonder the Three Valleys Area is the envy of the Alps!
For the children or beginners alike, direct access to the nursery slopes and the many easy greens and blues allows them to
build confidence and progress to a level previously thought impossible in a very short time.

The
Non-Skier
An absolute must for the non-skier
is a guided trip through the forest and back country on snowshoes ("tennis
rackets"), to rediscover the magical secrets of the mountains. Half
day and full day outings available.
Buy a walkers pass (at a considerable discount on a ski pass) and explore the
heights of Saulire (2700 metres) or the Col De La Loze, and meet your friends
for lunch. Relax in the jacuzzi or take a swim in one of the fine hotels,
or simply read that book you've been meaning to finish on our sun-drenched
terraces. For the more adventurous, there is paragliding or cross-country
skiing. There's certainly no reason to get bored as a non-skier.
