One of Europe’s most famed snowboarding mountains, Val d’Isre sports 357 kilometres of groomed trails. The season gets going during mid November and culminates in May. The purpose built French village supplies everything for you. The resort unfolds along the vale from La Daille as far as Le Fornet with the buzzing centre in Val Village. This clustering of appealing chalets comprise chic dress shops nearly all of which have sprung up since the town was chosen for the Winter Olympics in 1992.
Broken into 3 parts the town has many trails for all skiers. It has a fab snow record, the resort is massively popular among advanced boarders and motorway skiing intermediates, however you don’t need to be particularly adventurous to love what is on offer. It is easy to why numerous Brits are attracted to the area, with its exciting night-life and the choice of luxury chalets on offer, furthermore the proximity of Tignes enables you to head out to less busy climes if it all becomes all too much.
Pros
A good nightlife in France. Everybody talks English. Comfortable approach to both Val d’Isre and Tignes known as the Espace Killy ski area. There is lots of cars and while there are regular buses during the daytime, committed party animmals had better head to be within walking distance of the town centre.
Cons
Costly. Busy and very fashionable with the English, therefore not for holiday makers wanting a classic French ski resort to enjoy a calming trip. Many skiing lifts can shut in stormy weather. Several challenging blue and green pistes.
