Alpine ski area — Le Grand Domaine
Linking the resorts of Valmorel and Saint-Francois-Longchamp via the famous Col de la Madeleine, Le Grand Domaine is a vast 165 km skiing area. This complex, which also includes the villages of Doucy and Celliers, extends from 1,250 to 2,550 metres altitude in grandiose landscapes with views over the Mont Blanc or Ecrins massifs. The domain is particularly renowned for its pleasure-skiing profile, ideal for families and progressing skiers. Among its 103 runs, a large majority are beginner to intermediate level (25 green and 49 blue), offering wide perfectly groomed slopes and smooth links assured by a modern 49 ski-lift fleet. The two main slopes offer complementary experiences: the Saint-Francois-Longchamp side, south-facing, guarantees maximum sunshine; the Valmorel side offers different atmospheres in the heart of the Tarentaise. Beyond traditional alpine skiing, Le Grand Domaine stands out with a very complete offering of fun areas: 5 boardercross and 3 snowpark/railpark runs for freestyle enthusiasts; 4 fun zones for families; marked freeride zones for safe powder initiation. The domain is also dotted with Labell’Aires — panoramic rest areas for a contemplative pause between two descents.
