Les 3 Vallées for all
EACH TO THEIR OWN 3 VALLÉES
Like a good book, where the reader devours the story while creating his or her own vision of the characters and places described by the author, Les 3 Vallées is also perceived differently by each of us: a huge adventure playground for experts, a beautiful setting for friends and family to reunite, and a land of discovery for beginner skiers.
Everyone will find what they came for, though their experiences will be different, ever-changing, and cumulative: this land of discovery where you learned to ski may well become your adventure playground as your ability progresses, or the place to get together with your best friends, or indeed both!

LEARNING
Age is of no importance…let yourself go and discover the sheer joy of skiing, as it releases emotions and provides unique sensations like no other. Learning is a different experience for children and adults: while children are used to being in the position of a learner, this is often no longer the case for adults.
However, all those working in Les 3 Vallées are particularly keen to offer beginners of any age the best possible conditions for learning, in comfort and safety... without forgetting to have fun!
More than 190 runs are classified as easy, and designed for gentle skiing, with large areas dedicated to beginners of all ages, all in a happy, tranquil atmosphere: Les 3 Vallées is the perfect place to learn to ski!
What’s more, several ski lifts across Les 3 Vallées are totally free of charge, allowing beginner skiers to get started at a very low cost, before going further and higher...all the way to the top!
The optimal conditions for learning can sometimes seem like mere details, but they often make a big difference: especially where exceptional grooming of the slopes and snow conditions are concerned... two very important details when learning to ski!
Finally, whatever your age or your objectives, the teaching methods of an ESF French Ski School instructor ensure efficient and swift progress for everyone, whether in private lessons or in a group with other beginners... (where some fun banter and great team spirit are guaranteed!).
The mountain summits are not just for strong skiers; many easy itineraries invite those who are new to skiing to reach new heights as well.
