The Les Arcs resort is one of the best in the Alps. It caters to all levels of skiers, from children to adults. Those wanting to learn to ski will find what they're looking for, as will those wanting to ski more and have fun. The charming villages are sure to delight visitors of all ages in this snowy landscape. Furthermore, Les Arcs is particularly accessible thanks to the TGV train station, the funicular, and the shuttle buses. Another major advantage of this resort is its family-friendly atmosphere, making it ideal for welcoming and enjoying a wonderful time with families.

attracts younger skiers and boarders who ski without control and consideration. Not good for beginners but they still go. Many slopes turn quickly to hard pack, with mixed skiing abilities and overcrowded - so can be precarious. needs a constant topping up of fresh snow to stay in decent condition. poorly groomed in comparison to their peers in the Tarantaise. Nice selection of restaurants and bars, both in town and on the slopes. charge extra for a 'fast lane' because capacity doesn't match the volume of skiers. Pay the premium or expect queues at key lifts. Not a patch on Tignes or the 3 vallees. Ski hire is poor quality - much older skis that would be normal - not always well maintained.

It's a beautiful resort with a superb, high-quality ski area. There's something for everyone, young and old.
Access is easy by public transport and car; the roads are well-maintained, and the funicular railway and proximity to Bourg-Saint-Maurice mean you'll find all the shops and services you need nearby. There's something for everyone, whether you're a skier, snowboarder, or simply a winter mountain enthusiast. I highly recommend it.

The Les Arcs ski area offers a wide variety of slopes for all levels. The best thing about the area is the sunshine all day long: skiing in Arc 2000 in the morning and towards Arc 1600 and 1800 in the afternoon. The link to La Plagne allows you to enjoy a larger ski area and discover new slopes. Finally, the icing on the cake is the breathtaking view of Mont Blanc, which provides perfect photo opportunities.

Beautiful resort. Well-developed and well-configured for beginners, especially in Arc 2000. A lovely area offering a variety of slopes for all levels.

A wonderful family resort for all types of skiers.
Ghislain Dubreuil
In my opinion, one of the best resorts in the Alps. First of all, it's very easy to get to, being directly connected to Bourg Saint Maurice (TGV station) via the funicular. Secondly, the resort is very large, at a high altitude (up to 3200m!), and has several villages, each with its own special atmosphere. My favorite is still 1800, for its lively atmosphere and après-ski scene! The slopes are fantastic, with a special mention for the Aiguille Rouge. Finally, there's something for everyone in terms of thrills: wide, open runs, challenging and technical slopes… I love it!!
Laurence
A very comprehensive resort to suit all tastes: family-friendly at 1600m, sporty at 1800m and 2000m, and chic at 1950m
Cat
Great for skiing because of the large ski area!
Great for relaxing your eyes and mind in this white calm!
Great if you appreciate architectural heritage (Charlotte Perriand)!
Not great if you enjoy snowshoeing
