Val
d'Isère is located at the entrance of the Vanoise National Park providing
some hundred kilometres of marked paths (guidebook available in chalet).
From easy walks for the family to more strenuous walks, there is something
for everyone. The Park is a haven for wild animals like chamois and marmots,
and a number of mountain refuges are to be found in the area providing a
superb opportunity for the more adventurous to spend a night in the mountains. |

Chalet
l'Ourson Blanc is ideal for family groups or adult parties. In a quiet
location on the edge of the old village of Val d'Isère it is a
3 minute walk in one direction to shops, restaurants and bars, and a step
through the garden gate in the other to fields and mountains. The arrangement
of bedrooms on 2 floors, a large living/dining area and south-facing sun
terrace provide the perfect accommodation to spend time together after
your day's activities, or simply to relax and let the hours drift by.
The terrace is drenched in sun most of the day and ideal for enjoying
meals outside or savouring a cold beer whilst admiring the uninterrupted
views of the surrounding mountains and keeping an eye on the kids.
A
breakfast of cereals, breads, fruit, yoghurts, fruit juices and fresh
tea and coffee is provided along with afternoon tea and on 6 of the 7
nights a 3 course meal is served with wines including some from the Savoie
region. Special dietary requirements can be catered for without extra
cost. On your chalet host's day off breakfast is left out for you to help
yourself and in the evening you are able to choose from the wide variety
of restaurants in Val d'Isère.

Linked with neighbouring Tignes, Val d'Isere boasts over 300 kilometres of pistes, vast areas of ?off piste? and skiing as high as 3,300 metres. It is an area that attracts superlatives, most of them justified. But don't be misled into thinking that the Val d'Isere skiing is just for experts.skiing at val d'isere There are an enormous number of cruising runs, and for novice skiers the nursery slopes in the centre of the village are free. Skiing begins in... November and continues until May. In recent years, some of the best snow of the season has been available before Christmas and after Easter. Unlike many other French ski resorts, Val d'Isere is a proper town, not just a purpose built ski complex. As a result, it has a bustling and lively atmosphere centred on the wide main street that runs the length of the town. Recent buildings have certainly enhanced the appearance of this central area, using stone and wood in traditional Savoyarde style. Good news for this season the wonderful but old "up and over" chair lift that links the Solaise ski area with Le Fornet, will be replaced by a fast 6 person chair lift. This will speed up access to the lovely cruising runs of the Glacier de Pissaillas. Last season's opening of the high speed, 24 person bubble lift as a replacement for the old Bellevarde cable car has proved a great success.chalet holidays It has vastly improved the uplift out of the town, especially early morning and has also provided, those that do not wish to ski down, a way to return directly back to Val d'Isere at the end of the day. Another set of new lifts that were opened last season were the 2, high speed, 8 man Tommeuse chairlifts, linking Val d'Isere with Tignes. They have proved very popular as they are very much faster than the old versions they replaced. The moving carpet at the bottom has also impressed! France's top resort, world famous for superb skiing and apres-ski. The heart of Val d'Isère has retained its old world charm but stylish shopping arcades and new buildings have been added to cater for skiers from all over the world. It boasts breathtaking vertical drops, welcoming wide bowls, free beginners' lifts on the nursery slopes and lifts suitable for non-skiers up to mountain cafes. An excellent free shuttle bus service links the futuristic La Daille area with Val Village centre and runs out to chalet-style Le Fornet.
