A gondola from the edge of town and a fast chairlift whisk you rapidly up into the heart of the Three Valleys ski area.

It is worth staying local however for the long, cruisey blue runs, especially if you’re here during holiday season as this is one of the quieter sections of the Three Valleys. The lifts take you to the top of Tougnete, from which you can either drop in Meribel and head towards Courchevel or stick in the Belleville Valley and ski towards Les Menuires.

Unusually for the region, St Martin retains a rustic charm that you certainly don’t get further up the valley in Val Thorens. The village centre remains small, with the church acting as a focal point. Fortunately, the main road up the valley bypasses the village, meaning it is nice and quiet and safer for families. There’s traditional chalet-style accommodation and a couple of hotels, all of which will be notably cheaper than further up the valley. As a result of its lower altitude, access from Geneva is a little quicker, but the transfer still takes over 2 hours.

Green Credentials

Ski Club Recognised: Environmentally Sustainable Resort

The Ski Club uses third party independent assessments and accreditation of ski resorts to determine a resort “environmentally sustainable” – more information can be found here.

As part of the French Flocon Vert (tr. Green Snowflake) scheme, St Martin de Belleville – as part of the wider Belleville commune including Val Thorens and Les Menuires – has been awarded one snowflake out of a possible three, representing investment in resources to reduce its environmental impact. Flocon Vert is an independent scheme operated by Mountain Riders, which accredits resorts in France who have met twenty criteria based on environmental, social and economic sustainability.

St Martin and the Belleville valley was first accredited in 2022
The ecological governance of the resort drew particular attention, including preserving several rare natural habitats
A comprehensive package of support is in place to support diversification of the local economy

Snow Overview

France

Updated 17/02

Strong snowfall continues into this week after last week’s incredible numbers – with the avalanche risk remaining very high as a result, with Level 4 (High) and Level 5 (Very High) dominating across the French Alps. Around 25cm of snowfall is coming down on Tuesday with flurries continuing into Wednesday, with cloud and obscured conditions in play. This will reach most elevations as the freezing line remains close to 1,000m throughout, taking a long walk off a short pier overnight as it hits sea level.

Another large snowfall is due on Thursday, continuing to bring excellent snow but maintaining this avalanche cycle – this new snow is sitting on a persistent weak layer dating from December that has been causing issues all winter, and remains a severe risk now.

Temperatures remain cold, with the freezing line holding fast at around 1,500m. This means that around 70cm of snowfall will hit upper slopes, with decent totals of 20cm reaching lower slopes, too.

Cloud clears – as does the snow – over Friday and into Saturday, meaning those of you still skiing may well experience amazing conditions now that this new loading of snow has had a chance to sinter and bind to the layers below; although with a persistent weak layer in play this will remain dangerous for some time.

Conditions take a marked turn towards spring, with sun during the day and cold temperatures overnight, creating a distinct freeze-thaw cycle.
