About the resort

Complete freedom in the sun and the snow,

that is the essence of Valmeinier!
The magic of the peaks around Valmeinier, Les Ecrins on one side, La Vanoise on the other. Our village resort has two sides, with a big choice of slopes, the wildest on the edge of great natural parks, the more playful on an authentic modern ski area Valloire.

Whether on a ski holiday with the family or with friends, Valmeinier has plenty of accommodation options to offer (apartments, hotel rooms, chalets, etc.) and 150 km of slopes await your pleasure. Valmeinier has all the assets of a top station. Just imagine the vast snowfields of the Maurienne range, in the south of Savoie. This is where the sun of the south meets the snows of the north.
