The Val Cenis

- A ski area open from December 14, 2025 to April 17, 2026 - that's over 4 months of skiing a year!
- A high-altitude resort, Val Cenis faces north. The ski area culminates at 2800m.
- On the border with Italy, Val Cenis benefits from "easterly returns", a highly localized weather phenomenon that brings high snowfall totals.
- Natural snow cover is enhanced by a large network of artificial snowmaking systems (snow production linked to existing hydroelectric facilities).

- 125km of varied runs for all levels.
- 1500m vertical drop.
- Modern lifts to make the most of the slopes, without wasting time.

- Val Cenis has been awarded the Green Snowflake label. The resort takes daily action to preserve its main asset: its exceptional environment.
- The ski-lift fleet is optimized (rational consumption: reduced speed during low-use periods, heat recovery).
- Val Cenis is the 1st French resort to have invested in an electric groomer ("local" energy: Val Cenis is home to a large dam that produces hydroelectricity).
- There are strong links between the resort and the Vanoise National Park (quiet zones for black grouse and wild animals in the ski area, the "Nature and Ski" event, special events for holidaymakers, etc.).

- 96% of Val Cenis is undeveloped.
