Ski area Le Grand Domaine
The pistes are predominantly intermediate, but there are many demanding runs, mogul pistes and countless deep snow possibilities. One of the more challenging pistes is the 1.8 km long "La Luzière", on which you have to overcome a difference in altitude of 700 m.
Exemplary is the large beginners terrain with especially slow lifts, as well as a children's village. The little ones will be supervised, if the big "kids" want to go skiing by themselves. The ideal location means the region is snow-sure until mid-April.
In Valmorel there is a fun park called "Snowzone" for boarders with half-pipe, boardercross, jumps and much more. A further park,is to be found in St. François.
Après ski St. François-Longchamp
Lively après ski, however, is something this quiet town does not offer: a holiday in St. François-Longchamp means winter sports, relaxation, recuperation, and taking a break from everyday life. Let the evening gently die away in a bar, a restaurant or in the cinema.
An absolute highlight at night are the spectacular torch-lit runs, which you should definitely not miss.
Snowpark: Snowpark Snow Zone St. François-Longchamp
Valmorel's house park "Snow Zone" is located in the ski area "Grand Domaine", directly at the tow lift "Le Gollet". Beginners and advanced skiers can enjoy themselves on the tables, slide boxes and kickers. Speed junkies can go crazy on the boarder cross route and the pros among you can let off steam on the park-own 120 m long half pipe.
Those looking for additional freestyle will find a further snow park in St. François-Longchamp, directly next to the ski lift "le Rocher Blanc". Furthermore, there is another boarder cross route below the chair lift "La Lune Bleue".
