I learnt here 50 years ago and we have intermittently visited to see its development over the years. Now we go every year as it really suits us and we never feel let-down. Great ski-in, ski-out, espcially in 1800. New lifts being added every year, New TransArc 2 years ago, New Vallandry 3 years ago, new Villaroger 10 person bubble this year. It could do with more capacity up to the Aiguille Rouge to reduce queues but I guess the receding glacier doesn't really justify this. Very snow sure and snow-making is comprehensive (but it is also a B Corp and very environmentally conscious). The number of tree-runs around Peisey Vallandry means white-outs are still ski-able. We often pop over to Val d'Isere/Tignes and Courchevel/Meribel and are very pleased to come back to Les Arcs. Les crowded, less glitzy, more focused on skiing. Plus you have the Intermediate dream of La Plagne available on the same lift-pass. The timber clad and distinctive buildings are unique among custom resorts and are officially part of the French Patrimoine, Charloote Perignan (designer) was a true pioneer. Overall, for the range of facilities, range of slopes, and variety of accommodation we think Les Arcs is right up there in terms of value for money amongst the major ski destinations, and we have skied all over the USA, Canada, Japan and Europe.
