SKI HOLIDAYS

Day train

Wake up on Saturday morning fresh and ready to hop on the ski train. Once on board you can stretch out and relax or head to café Metropole for snacks and drinks and to catch up with old friends and make some new ones. You’ll arrive in time for a first night fondue and a glass of vin chaud.

Luggage allowance

Direct train:  you can take a pair of skis or snowboard on top of your 2-bag luggage allowance. Once on board, you’ll find extra space set aside in each coach for bulky bags and kit.

The huge Paradiski area includes Les Arcs, Peisey-Vallandry and La Plagne and covers 425km of piste, catering well for every level of skier or snowboarder.

You'll find a good choice of green, blue, red and black runs and, with most of the accommodation ski-in/ski-out, you can maximise your time on the slopes.

With over 600kms of piste and 320 ski runs, Three Valleys is the biggest ski area in the world.

So, no surprise that there is something for everyone here, from beginner areas to all types of extreme terrain. The Three Valley's area consists of more than 12 villages, including Courchevel, Méribel, Les Menuires and  Val Thorens,

The Espace Killy area, now known as Val d’Isère – Tignes, is considered to be one of the best in the world and has hosted major ski events including the Winter Olympics downhill races.

There's plenty of skiing for every ability from well-designed nursery slopes to world-class terrain parks for freestylers and  kilometres of wide, blue and red pistes.
