Stand-alone chalets are a rarity in Val Thorens and even more so when they are ski-in, ski-out. If it’s a good location you’re after, then Chalets Pégase and Véga are both housed in Chalet Alrock, situated on piste, next to the brand new Sports Centre, just below the central Place du Caron.
They are both run and catered separately but share the bonus of the sauna on the ground floor. The chalet gives you direct access to the piste so you just need to clip in, and off you go, either down to the bottom of the magic carpets (for beginners) or down to Les Menuires or to the various chairlifts and gondolas that open up access to all of the Three Valleys and the glacier.
Véga is on the third and fourth floor of Chalet Alrock. All six ensuite bedrooms are situated on the 3rd floor, some of which have a balcony. The pièce de résistance is the open-plan lounger/diner on the top floor, which also has a fireplace and offers the same great views of the Massif de Peclet, Cime Caron and Pointe de la Masse mountains on the terrace from where you can have your afternoon tea and watch the last skiers and boarders carve their way past the chalet on their final run home.
