About Val Thorens
At 2,300 m, Val Thorens is the highest ski resort in Europe. Snow is guaranteed from November to May, and the 3 Vallées ski area starts at the door of the residences. It is also the longest climb: 2 h 30 min from Geneva Airport, 1 h 55 min from Annecy.
The last part of the journey is a 37 km climb from Moûtiers. On winter Saturdays, we leave earlier to get ahead of the traffic.
