Val Thorens is a purpose built resort created over 40 years ago, the original idea thought up by Pierre Schnebelen. The resort began its first season in December 1971 with just three draglifts.

Les Menuires is a practical, good-value base with ski-in ski-out access to the vast Three Valleys. Most accommodation is in La Croisette near the shops, bars and restaurants, while Reberty and Les Bruyeres offer a more traditional feel with their own lifts and facilities. Quieter hamlets like Le Bettaix give you easy piste access in a peaceful setting.

St Martin de Belleville combines traditional French village charm with the convenience of modern skiing. You can wander cobbled streets, sample local cheese and pastries, then hop on the lift to explore the largest ski area in the world. With small welcoming hotels, luxury catered chalets and peaceful evenings, it’s perfect if you want world-class skiing without the bustle of a big resort.
