Ski Les Arcs

Les Arcs 2000 offers some of the finest and most varied skiing in France and is suited to all levels of skier and snowboarder. This resort is a great all rounder and all ski chalets are ski to door, and many have pool and sauna access yet still boast a value price.

High Altitude
Les Arcs 2000 is a new generation of ski resort that offers high altitude skiing with pleasant chalet-style architecture - (pool, sauna, ski to door) -rather than concrete high rise apartments that ruin the look of many resorts. These high altitude "snow sure" ski areas have been created for families and all abilities of skier and snowboarder in mind. See our Chalet des Neiges for more.

Convenient ski holidays
Les Arcs 2000 is a relatively new ski village with attractive architecture and convenient ski-to-door skiing. It is new generation because it has been designed for the skier in mind - rather than having evolved from a farming village. It therefore has everything that skiers want.

Paradiski Holidays
A long-term favourite amongst skiers and boarders, Les Arcs has increased further in popularity in recent years, due to the addition of the Vanoise Express cable car linking the ski area with neighbouring La Plagne to form the huge Paradiski Area which is the 4th largest in Europe with 17 alpine villages and 460 km of slope to make your ski holiday more adventurous.

The perfect resort for all!
Les Arcs suits everyone! It has an excellent range of family facilities, beginner slopes, ski to door access, wooden chalet style buildings, a cafe culture and lively apres ski with expansive intermediate and advanced skiing that help mark this as a modern, well planned ski resort. See our Les Arcs Chalets or our La Plagne Chalets in this neighbouring super resort that makes up the extensive Paradiski area.

Skiing in Les Arcs

Skiers will find the ultimate in variety for all levels in Les Arcs. The advanced will find an incredible 20 – 30 minute long 8 mile black descent from the Glacier down to the base point at Villaroger. There is fantastic Off Piste in the area and excellent mogul runs too.

The trees of Les Arcs make it very pretty and atmospheric to ski or ride around. Intermediates will really enjoy the expansive network of easier cruising runs which circuit the resort and allow for day trips over to La Plagne. A great deal of mileage can be covered in a day and will allow skiers to explore something new all the time.

Snowboarding in Les Arcs

Les Arcs has very firm roots in snowboarding history as a favourite place to ride and is the “season home” for many of the Pro’s. It has incredible variety from the mellow beginner slopes to some of the most challenging runs anywhere in France. The main point about Les Arcs is that it has something for everyone, and is a safe bet to suit all tastes.

The Regis Rolland “A Snowboards” designed Snow Park and Half Pipe are enough to satisfy most freestyle appetites as well as the natural Freeride terrain found all over the mountain which is great for getting airborne as you cruise around the pistes. Open powder meadows can be found at 2000m which are great in the morning for getting in plenty of effortless powder turns!

Beginner Skiing Les Arcs

Les Arcs is another great place to learn to ski or board. There are excellent networks of beginner runs all over the resort and English speaking snowboard schools are in good supply. The slopes are also very well kept and the children’s facilities second to none!

The Resort of Les Arcs

Les Arcs is one of the better looking purpose built ski resorts in France. Its high-rise apartment blocks have not fallen foul of the dreaded "concrete touch" and 1800 is shrouded in trees, so the resort has a very alpine feel to it. Les Arcs has over 30 bars and restaurants and live music venues that will suit all tastes. The all new Arc 1950 is just 5-10 minutes away and offers an even greater variety of nightlife and a more diverse cafe culture thus furnishing skiers with excellent choice.
