Skiing in Val d'Isere:
Probably the most famous ski resort in the world, Val d’Isère has one of the best snow records in Europe, links with Tignes to form ‘L’Espace Killy’ which is 10 miles from end to end. The quality and the quantity of the snow make it a skier’s Mecca and many people won’t even consider skiing anywhere else.
The village has gradually become a town with excellent facilities for skier and non-skier alike. There are plenty of shops selling the very latest in ski gear and gadgets. Non-skiing guests or those taking a break from the slopes can browse the extensive range of exclusive shops, or enjoy a wide range of alternative relaxing activities.
Unlike many other French ski resorts, Val d’Isère is a proper town, not just a purpose built ski complex. As a result, it has a bustling and lively atmosphere centred on the wide main street that runs the length of the town. It has a weekly market selling mainly clothes, local cheeses and saucissons.
