Ski area Le Grand Domaine
The 165 kilometres of piste are mainly of easy to medium difficulty, but there are also challenging descents, mogul pistes and countless deep snow variants. The most difficult descent in the Valmorel ski area is the 3 km long "Le Mottet" with a difference in altitude of 600 metres.
Valmorel is also home to "The Pirates Snowpark" with tables, slides, jumps and a boardercross course. At the end of the Rocher Blanc lift in St. François-Longchamp, freestylers will also find the "Rail Park" snow park with a selection of jumps, kickers and, of course, various rails.
The large beginners' area with extra slow lifts and the children's village are both exemplary. The little ones are looked after here when the grown-ups want to ski alone. Thanks to its ideal location, the area is guaranteed snow until mid-April.
Après ski St. François-Longchamp
The quiet villages don't offer a lively après ski scene: a holiday in Le Grand Domaine means winter sports, relaxation, resting in the sun and letting your mind wander. End the evening in a cosy bar or cinema. Before that, however, we recommend a visit to one of the many small restaurants. There you can treat your taste buds to Savoyard and international specialities.
A varied programme of sports, games and shows is offered on site during the season. Other activities include tobogganing, ice climbing, hiking (approx. 60 km of trails) and snowmobile and horse-drawn sleigh rides.
