Val d'Isère

: Trajet :

2 h 45 from Lyon

Val d'Isère, at 1,850 metres, is the serious skier's Alpine address: high, snow-sure, and linked with Tignes across the Espace Killy domain named for the local Olympic champion Jean-Claude Killy. Under three hours from Lyon, FFGR Lyon arranges ski-in chalets, private instructors from the legendary ESF, and après-ski at the Folie Douce. The resort retains an authentic Savoyard core around the old church of Saint-Bernard, while L'Aigle des Neiges and Le Refuge de Solaise, Europe's highest hotel, offer genuine comfort at altitude. The glacier guarantees skiing from November to May.
