The Terrain in Les Arcs

Les Arcs spreads across four base villages — 1600, 1800, 1950, and 2000 — all connected by ski lifts rather than roads, so you can arrive by train at Bourg-Saint-Maurice and take the funicular up. Arc 1950 is the newest, built in 2003 in traditional Savoyard style; Arc 2000 sits closest to the glacier skiing on the Aiguille Rouge at 3,226m.

Après-Ski and Village Life

The Vanoise Express cable car between Les Arcs and La Plagne takes 4 minutes and carries 200 passengers per trip — a unique sight even for non-skiers, with the valley floor 380m below as you cross.
