From your accommodation, you 'll have direct access to the slopes and can explore the Galibier-Thabor ski area , with its 150 km of varied runs and spectacular views of Mont Thabor.

Your stay combines comfort and flexibility with a package including accommodation in a private room or shared room, half-board, and a ski pass. This carefully planned arrangement allows you to make the most of every day, whatever your skill level.

The expert's opinion

Linked to Valloire, the Valmeinier ski area is part of the vast Galibier-Thabor domain, which offers 160 km of slopes in the heart of the Maurienne valley. With 90 runs spread between 1,430 and 2,750 meters in altitude, it is suitable for both beginners and experienced skiers, thanks to a wide selection of green, blue, red, and black runs.

Altitude is one of its main assets: approximately 70% of the ski area lies above 2,000 meters, ensuring good snow conditions from December to April, supplemented by a network of snow cannons. Fans of freestyle skiing and snowboarding can also enjoy a snowpark, fun zones, slalom courses, and ski cross courses.

Management

Security

Skiing and snowboarding offer thrills and a special connection with the mountains, but they also involve risks that must be managed to ensure a pleasant and safe experience.

Before setting off, a good level of physical fitness is recommended. Wearing a helmet is strongly advised, as are back protectors for snowboarders. Equipment (skis, bindings, boots) must be properly adjusted and suited to the skier's skill level.
