Ski Facts
With over 150 km of slopes between 1 430 and 2 600 meters high and excellent conditions, the newly baptised Galibier-Thabor ski area (We?ll keep calling it Valloire/Valmeinier for a while longer) has got something for everyone. The ski area is linked to the neighbouring resort Valmeinier giving 180km of well-groomed runs. The resort is recommended for beginners and intermediates - skiers as well as snowboarders. Beginners may particularly enjoy the fact that there are nursery slopes at the top of the mountain. Intermediates have a good choice of runs including some nice reds and not too-challenging blacks that may be within the means of most intermediate skiers. For advanced skiers, there are few blacks only, some of which can be considered testing, and a fair bit of off-piste when the conditions are right. The skiing conditions are remarkably good throughout the season due to most of the terrain being north facing.
70% of the ski area is located above 2 000 m high. There is a 1 170 m vertical drop. 33 ski lifts and 85 slopes of every level a capacity of more than 42 000 skiers / hour. Optimum snow cover from December to April thanks to more than 400 snow-canons. 3 slalom slopes and two competition slopes, Freestyle areas and 10 picnic areas.
