Highlight

Located in the heart of the 3 Vallées and perched at an altitude of 2,300 meters, Val Thorens is the highest resort in Europe. Renowned for the quality of its snow and the diversity of its ski area, it offers an exceptional playground for all skiers. At Eskiador, we ski here almost every day… So naturally, we know which runs are really worth checking out.

1. The Combe de Caron Trail – A High-Mountain Experience

Accessible from the legendary summit of Cime Caron, this red run is one of the most impressive in Val Thorens. With a 360° panorama, a high-mountain atmosphere, and often excellent snow… it’s a must-try run.

Our tip: Take this run on a clear day to enjoy the exceptional view of the Alps.

2. The Christine Trail – For Experienced Skiers

Rated “black,” Christine is a technical, challenging, yet incredibly beautiful run. Set in a wild, untamed environment, it offers a true “backcountry” skiing experience.

Our tip: Best enjoyed in good snow conditions, preferably early in the day.

3. The Plein Sud Trail – Accessible Fun

A wide, sunny red run, Plein Sud is perfect for flowing smoothly through the turns. Ideal for intermediate skiers who want to have fun without too much difficulty.

Our tip: perfect in the late morning, when the snow starts to soften slightly.

4. The Boulevard Cumin Trail – For a Leisurely Experience

A long blue run accessible from the summit, Boulevard Cumin is ideal for enjoying the scenery and skiing at a leisurely pace. It offers a pleasant descent with a magnificent view of the valley.

Our tip: perfect for families or for a gentle return to skiing.
