Val d’Isère is a
picturesque mountain village located in the Savoie region of France near the
Italian border. It is considered one of
the best ski areas in the world with an incredibly varied terrain to satisfy
every level of skier from novice to off-piste guru. It possesses
one of the most enviable snow records in the French Alps and offers skiing from
late November to mid-May. Val d’Isère
and Tignes together form L’Espace Killy, one of the largest ski areas in the
world with one of the quickest, most efficient lift systems in existence. A unique skiing mecca with over 300 km of
groomed runs and seemingly endless off-piste possibilities, it is the perfect
spot for thrill-seekers and neophytes alike.
The village offers a wide range of accommodation to suit your budget and
