Travel Guide Valmorel

Valmorel and the Aigueblanche valleys offer a diverse mountain landscape, ideal for lovers of unspoilt nature. Valmorel embodies the essence of mountain life, with its picturesque stone and wood chalets, lauze roofs and trompe-l'oeil facades blending harmoniously into the wilderness. The vast Valmorel ski area, covering 3,600 hectares and rising to altitudes of between 1,250 and 2,550 metres, reveals its splendour to keen observers. The 165 km of slopes, including 4 free-ride zones and numerous courses for novices, will delight skiers of all horizons. Situated at the foot of the Cheval Noir massif, Valmorel's unique character blends tradition and modernity. The heart of the resort is a snow-covered pedestrian street where strollers reign supreme. The buildings, limited to four storeys, the small squares and covered parking lots bear witness to a successful integration into the mountain environment. The village is also perfect for direct access skiing, thanks to its easily accessible lifts. Summer in Valmorel is just as pleasant, offering a variety of exceptional activities, such as mountain biking, hiking, tree climbing, swimming and bike park, thanks to its altitude and relief. Unlike higher resorts, Valmorel is surrounded by forests and meadows, home to flocks of sheep and trails suitable for all levels of experience.
