The Vallées d’Aigueblanche At the junction of the Beaufortain and Lauzière and Vanoise mountain ranges, the Vallées d’Aigueblanche (situated 1 hour from Chambéry) offer a multitude of mountain activities, in all seasons, with a variety of ambiances and exceptional countryside in the heart of the Tarentaise.
Valmorel Open wide your eyes to the richness of the area... The Valmorel ski area is spread over 3600 hectares, from an altitude of 1400m to 2832. A territory where nature shows all its beauty to those who know how to look. Stone and wooden chalets, slate rooves, trompe l’oeil façades..., the architecture is perfectly integrated into its natural surroundings. In this preserved setting, the Valmorel ski area offers multiple possibilities of getting away from it all … just open your eyes!
Doucy-Combelouvière Doucy-Combelouvière will charm you and show you that tradition and modernism can be combined in all simplicity, and along with an exceptional panorama and set around its square; in the heart of the Grand Domaine. Directly on the piste with easy access to the Grand Domaine. The huge unchanged area of the Lauzière mountain range, kingdom of ski trekking and snowshoeing, is accessible in just 30 minutes via the Celliers gondola.
The Vallée de Celliers/Lauzière mountain range The Vallée de l’Eau Rousse, commonly known as the Vallée de Celliers, starts at the famous Col de la Madeleine (shut in winter) and marks the Eastern border of the Lauzière mountain range. A remote valley, preserved from all development, Celliers is the starting point for numerous treks on skis or on snowshoes. The valley is linked to the Valmorel ski area by the new Celliers gondola.
Aigueblanche / La Léchère At the heart of these valleys, near the old town of Aigueblanche, the thermal resort of La Léchère, born at the beginning of the 20th Century, offers treatments and “getting back into shape” stays. It is ideally situated at 15km from Valmorel, from Doucy-Combelouvière and from Naves.
The Vallee De Naves/ Beaufortain mountain range On the undulating mountainside of Naves there are a multitude of walking and trekking itineraries for snowshoers and skiers (15km of snowshoe itineraries). A marvellous cross country area, Naves has 40km of cross country skiing tracks.
