Val Thorens has evolved enormously over the past fifteen years. New developments have improved the architecture and atmosphere of the resort immeasurably. There are a huge variety of bars, restaurants and shops as well as a variety of activities away from the slopes, including a brand new sports centre next to the chalets which features a swimming pool, sauna, and fitness centre.
The ski terrain is diverse with runs for all abilities. Beginners can enjoy gentle slopes on the lower part of the mountain, while intermediate skiers can explore the wide pistes around the resort. Advanced skiers and snowboarders can tackle the challenging runs at the top of the resort, including the famous Cime de Caron black run.
