Valmorel - Valmorel

Valmorel is the main resort in this ski region. It is a modern and well planned French ski village with a good selection of Alpine bars and restaurants in its pedestrianised heart. The slopes in this area are generally blue and there are a lot of nursery areas, so this resort does suits beginners very well. The resort is linked to St Francois Longchamp which does expand the skiable area considerably. Valmorel is at1350m in the middle of a bowl and there are many tree lined runs leading into the village, higher altitude skiing is available above the tree line up to 2400m and this provides free riders some great off piste skiing opportunities. The snow record in Valmorel is good, even though the resort itself is lower than many of its neighbours.
