Valmorel is one of the prettiest of the modern ski resorts, carefully and sympathetically designed to reflect traditional Savoyard living while equally providing a bustling, pedestrianised village full of intimate restaurants, bars and boutiques. It is one of the last truly French resorts in the Alps, boasting a friendly and welcoming local population.

The Grand Domain ski area is easily accessible from the centre of town and comprises 150 km of slopes, extending as far as St Francois Longchamp. For intermediates, there are many long runs at high altitude and pretty pine forested paths, whilst testing black runs and extensive off-piste skiing will challenge the more advanced. There is a separate beginner’s ski area close to the village, several easily reached green runs, and another learning area specifically for snowboarders. Covering altitudes of 1400m to 2500m, the slopes are North facing, ensuring maximum snow coverage throughout the season. 

There is continual investment being ploughed into the terrain infrastructure, with lift capacity and mountain facilities ever-expanding. With the current development (see 'property in Valmorel') estimated to add 10% to the normal number of skiers, the value of resort will rise and further enhance the skiers’ experience of this fabulous and largely undiscovered ski area.
