- Last snowed: Fri 26 Dec
It is a small, purpose-built development in the forest, with most of the skiing higher up on open slopes.
The main access gondola goes to Plateau d’Arrondaz (2220m), where there are nursery slopes and short blue runs. The heart of the skiing is the peak of Punta Bagna (2735m), with two six-packs serving slopes on the front and back – direct genuine blacks back to Plateau d’Arrondaz on the front of the hill (500m vertical), less direct reds and roundabout blues elsewhere, including a glorious long blue all the way to the resort for a vertical of almost 1200m.
There are more direct blue and black ways home, too. The pistes total 70km.
The resort consists mostly of a cluster of chalet-shaped apartment blocks around the lift base, with smaller residences and individual chalets dotted around. There are cleared paths, and snowshoe outings. A chairlift of 160m vertical serves toboggan runs 3km long. Chambery airport is the closest airport to Valfréjus at just an hour and 20 minute drive away. Alternative airports are Grenoble and Geneva which are an hour and a half and a two hour drive away respectively.

Snow Overview
France
Updated 30/12
The New Year dawns bright, dry and sunny as high pressure remains over much of Europe during this time. This changes rapidly as the weekend begins, with large flows of low pressure and cold air moving in from the East. This will bring excellent snow totals to much of the French Alps.
Snow will begin on Friday with around 20cm down. This will then increase to up to 1m down over higher ground, snow continuing into Sunday with another 15cm forecast. The freezing line will rise to around 2,000m throughout this period however snowfall is expected to reach lower down the hill too.
This snow will fall on a persistent weak layer and layers of facets within the snowpack that have already triggered avalanches over the festive period. Expect the avalanche warning to rise greatly in the coming days, and the snowpack to take a long time to settle – plan all back country travel and check your local avalanche forecast before heading out.
Snowfall is expected to continue in the new week after a brief flurry of sunshine on Monday, with temperatures plummeting as the freezing line hits below sea level.
