Les Arcs Reviews

Les Arcs Reviews from the Ski Club of Great Britain

"Stayed in Peisey, Les Arcs. Great location! If weather sunny, hop over to La Plagne or go to the top of all Les Arcs, if poor, stay around Peisey/Vallandry and lower Les Arc for tree line skiing. Peisey gives you the best of all worlds!"

"Amazing amount of skiing - fantastic wide slopes for nervous intermediates, and lovely tree lined runs down to 1800. Didn't make it across to La Plagne - there was too much in Les Arcs!"
-- Sarah (Ski Club of GB member forum user)

"As an experienced skier, I liked the variety of runs for speedy skiing, open areas and tree lined runs, some challenging long moguled black runs and off-piste options, often near to the piste (offering an easier alternative for a mixed abilty group). Used the link to La Plagne (because it's there) but not sure if its worth it, as enough Skiing in Les Arcs for 1 week"

"There was really no need to do the same run twice the whole holiday. We got the Paradiski pass, which enabled us to go over to La Plagne. I can't remember having to queue for a lift, the electronic system makes it much quicker. The weather was fantastic, with clear blue skies, sun and fantastic views. I would recommend Les Arcs to all skiing abilities. Enjoy"

"Despite the spring like conditions we had yet another excellent week in Les Arcs. The variety of skiing remains excellent and the introduction of automatic read only lift passes has removed all queues on the lifts. I took the trip on the Vanoise express for the first time and enjoyed the ability to visit La Plagne. I am not sure I would buy a week long pass but it is worth it for a day out"

"The apres-ski must have improved since the last feedback reports. We found most places very welcoming, especially as we had a small 'lively' child with us"
