Stunning slopes for all skill levels in the Maurienne region

Only 100 metres from the village centre, the winter sports fun begins. That’s where the chairlift takes you up to Le Gros Crey with its varied descents – the perfect start to your adventure. The wide slopes are ideal for beginners and leisure skiers as well as for fans of carving or snowboarders. If you prefer leaving your tracks in fresh powder and on pristine descents, we recommend the less visited mountainsides of Pointe la Sandonière.

As you can see, the resort caters to all types of skiers. Specifically, there are 16 beginner slopes, which are ideal for kids and first-timers to practice their turns in the snow. Intermediate skiers will enjoy the resort's 66 easy and intermediate runs. Experienced skiers can compete on 8 black runs and steep descents. In addition, the daily groomed Snowpark du Lac de la Vieille at Crey du Quart offers halfpipes and exciting boardercross trails for even more winter fun.

And on top of that, the fun doesn't stop at Valmeinier 1800 when the sun goes down. There's a 600-metre slope for night skiing. Cozy bars and great après-ski parties await night owls at the base station of the Pré Aynard chairlift.
