Les Arcs ski & snowboard holidays take you to a purpose built resort in the Tarentaise Valley in the Savoire region of France. It is comprised of five villages all at different altitudes. They are Arc 2000, Arc 1800, Arc 1600, Arc 1950 and Peisey Vallandry. They all have their own distinctive charm and characteristics. All but Arc 1950 are very modern in style. Arc 1950, the last to be built, is of traditional construction and has more of an alpine village ambience. Since 2003 with the opening of the Vanoise Express cable car, Les Arcs has been linked to the Paradiski area which gives a huge four hundred and twenty-five kilometres of pistes. With such a vast area, all levels of expertise in both skiing and boarding are accommodated. Resort heights are around two thousand metres and the highest lift takes you to over thirty-two thousand metres so the season is fairly snow sure. There are snow making facilities on eleven percent of the runs which cover those at lower levels. Low cost Les Arcs ski holidays are in great demand as they really can please everyone. Families, couples and young adults are all attracted by the quality of the skiing and the great amenities.
