If you're looking to ski both the Les Arcs and La Plagne side of the Paradiski, you're perfectly placed to do so.

That being said, the variety of tree-lined slopes directly above the villages is often enough to keep many skiers happy – the three fast chairs in the sector serve a great network of long, wooded slopes.

However, more adventurous skiers will want to head right out across to ski the iconic Aiguille Rouge and take on the long decent to Villaroger, or take the cable car across to La Plagne and head to the lofty Bellecôte Glacier.

The villages are both pretty, in stark contrast to the mega resorts of La Plagne and Les Arcs further up the hill. Although there are some small hotels, much of the accommodation comes in the form of catered or self-catered chalets, many of which are traditionally wood-clad and are run by British tour operators. Getting here is simple via the valley and Aime or Bourg-Saint-Maurice – catch the Eurostar and TGV or drive around 2.5 hours from Geneva.

Snow Overview

France

Updated 24/12

After a relatively mild spell, dominated by dry weather and high pressure, things turn colder and snowier over the Christmas period – this will be limited to resorts hugging the Italian border, however, as this snow is driven by a “Retour d’Est” system making its way across northern Italy.

A cold front will begin to push into the northern Alps on Christmas day, bringing moderate snow to resorts at higher elevations. Expect snowfall around 800m, with accumulations of 5-10cm across higher ground. Temperatures will dip to -4°C at 2,000m, making for crisp, wintry conditions. This will continue into Boxing Day with a further 15cm expected down.

Conditions will shift again as the weekend begins, with high pressure and fine, dry and bright conditions returning to the Alps. The freezing line will remain cold, hovering around 1,000m throughout.
