Val Thorens Snow Report & Forecast

Discover the latest Val Thorens snow conditions

Author Caro Blackwell, Ski Editor Published

So that’s it for this winter in Val Thorens. It’s been a strange season, mainly enjoyed in two halves! After an early snow dump and optimistic signs of a good winter ahead, we suffered a real lack of snow at Christmas and New Year on the lower slopes. Then finally mid January we were rewarded for our patience with colder temperatures and a good dump of snow to get the season re-started and just in time for the February half terms.  We then enjoyed a sunny dry spell but by mid-February we were begging for more snow, even with our snow dances, the snow eluded us. Finally early March brought us more much needed snow and spring skiing was on! Although we suffered on the lower slopes at times. End of March and throughout April we were delivered more snow, in fact some big dumps of snow which has seen us through to the end of our season in style! An enormous shout out to those magnificent pisteurs who kept our resort going throughout, even at times when it seemed incredibly difficult on the low slopes. We’ll be back next winter with our weekly snow reports, until then, enjoy a break before summer in Val Thorens opens up.

For the last week of the season in Val Thorens, which closes on 8th May, you will enjoy some good skiing. Light snow is forecast on Friday over about 3000 metres and on Saturday moderate snow is forecast in the evening and light snow through Sunday with the freezing level down to around 2200 metres.  More moderate snowfall on Monday evening and then it looks like sunshine on Tuesday to enjoy the new powder up at high altitude. Enjoy the closing sessions apres ski parties 29th April - 5th May and La Grande Derniere 6th - 8th May.
